Hallelujah! What A Savior!


I love music. I especially love hymns. Traditional church music with four or 
five(sometimes more) verses that tell the story of our faith.
Hallelujah! What a Savior is on my mind today. As we are getting closer and
closer to holy week the magnitude of what Christ did seems more and more real.
I cannot really improve on the words of the song so I will just leave you with
the lyrics. 
 
1. Man of Sorrows!  what a name 
 for the Son of God, who came 
 ruined sinners to reclaim.  
 Hallelujah!  What a Savior!

2. Bearing shame and scoffing rude, 
 in my place condemned he stood; 
 sealed my pardon with his blood.
 Hallelujah!  What a Savior!

3. Guilty, vile, and helpless we; 
 spotless Lamb of God was he; 
 full atonement can it be?  
 Hallelujah!  What a Savior!

4. Lifted up was he to die; 
 "It is finished!" was his cry; 
 now in heaven exalted high.  
 Hallelujah!  What a Savior!

5. When he comes, our glorious King, 
 all his ransomed home to bring, 
 then anew this song we'll sing:
 Hallelujah!  What a Savior!
