Behold the Saviour of mankind
1
Behold the Saviour of mankindNailed to the shameful tree!How vast the love that him inclinedTo die for you and me!
2
Hark! how he groans, while nature shakes,And earth's strong pillars bend;The temple's vail in sunder breaks,The solid marbles rend.
3
'T is done! the precious ransom's paid!'T is done, the Saviour cries;See where he bows his sacred head;He bows his head, and dies.
