Man of Sorrows

Music and words by Brooke Ligertwood and Matt Crocker


Man of sorrows, Lamb of God,
By His own betrayed.
The sin of man and wrath of God
Has been on Jesus laid.

Oh, that rugged cross my salvation,
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out, hallelujah,
Praise and honor unto Thee.

Silent as He stood accused,
Beaten, mocked and scorned.
Bowing to the Father's will,
He took a crown of thorns.

Sent of heaven, God's own Son
To purchase and redeem,
And reconcile the very ones
Who nailed Him to that tree.

Now, my debt is paid, it is paid in full
By the precious blood that my Jesus spilled.
Now, the curse of sin has no hold on me.
Whom the Son sets free, oh, is free indeed.

See the stone is rolled away,
Behold the empty tomb.
Hallelujah, God be praised,
He's risen from the grave.
