Bound upon the accursèd tree,
Faint and bleeding, who is He?
By the flesh with scourges torn,
By the crown of twisted thorn;
By the side so deeply pierced:
By the baffled, burning thirst;
By the drooping death-dewed brow;
Son of Man! 'tis Thou! 'tis Thou!
Bound upon th' accursed tree,
Dread and awful, who is he?
By the sun at noonday pale,
Shivering rock, and rending veil,
Eden promised, ere he died,
To the felon at his side,
Lord! our suppliant knees we bow
Son of God! 'tis thou! 'tis thou!
Bound upon th' accursed tree,
Sad and dying, who is he?
By the last and bitter cry,
Ghost given up in agony,
By the lifeless body laid
In the chamber of the dead,
Crucified! we know thee now—
Son of man! 'tis thou! 'tis thou!
Bound upon th' accursed tree
Dread and awful, who is he?
By the spoiled and empty grave,
By the souls he died to save.
By the conquest he hath won,
By the saints before his throne,
By the rainbow round his brow—
Son of God! 'tis thou! 'tis thou!
