Weep not for me, the Saviour cried,
Your sins claim every tear;
These were the cruel instruments,
The thorns, the nails, the spear.
On the accursed tree I bore,
The wrath that was your due;
Justice inflicted heavy stripes,
And awful wounds for you.
Weep for yourselves and not for me,
My cross procured a crown;
And had those sufferings been withheld,
Your souls had been undone.
