Praise to Christ, the Man of sorrows,

tasting death for our release:

his the cup of bitter anguish,

ours the pardon, ours the peace;

his the blood that seals forgiveness,
F Em G
ours the weight of guilt he bore
Em Dm
so by death and resurrection
F G Am
Christ has opened heaven's door.

always he remains the same:

pledged to bring us to the Father,

strong in grace and free from blame
