Oh, the sharp pangs of smarting pain
My dear Redeemer bore;
When knotty whips, and ragged thorns
His sacred body tore!
'Twere you, my sins, my cruel sins,
His chief tormentors were;
Each of my crimes became a nail,
And unbelief the spear.
'Twere you that pull'd the vengeance down
Upon his guiltless head;
Breaky break, my heart, oh, burst mine eyes.
And let my sorrows bleed.
Strike, mighty grace, my stubborn soul,
Till melting waters flow.
And deep repentance drown mine eyes.
In undissembled woe.
