Chords with lyrics

[Verse 1]
C/GC/G
Alas! and did my Savior bleed
E minorEm
And did my Sovereign die.
C/GC/G
Would He devote that sacred head
C majorC
For sinners such as I?

[Verse 2]
C/GC/G
His body slain; nailed to the cross
E minorEm
Bathed in his own blood
C/GC/G
There received the wrath of God
C majorC
His soul in anguish stood.

[Verse 3]
C/GC/G
It was for crimes that I had done
E minorEm
That kept him on the tree.
C/GC/G
Amazing mercy, matchless grace
C majorC
And love beyond degree.

[Verse 4]
C/GC/G
When Christ, our own creator died
E minorEm
And took upon our sin
C/GC/G
Not even in that darkest hour
C majorC
Could glory be shut in

[Chorus]
C majorC      FF ­      C majorC ­ A minorAm
My thoughts fixed on His sacrifice
C majorC        FF    C majorC A minorAm
The cross that draws me near
C majorC     FF ­     C majorC  ­ A minorAm
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness
C majorC      FF ­   C majorC ­ A minorAm
And melt my eyes to tears.
