Oh, hallelujah, what a death
|
|
| 1. | Oh, hallelujah, what a death |
| | Christ died upon the cross! |
| | Not only was He dying there |
| | But everything that death did share: |
| | God was included too, |
| | All men with me and you- |
| | Oh, hallelujah, for such a cross! |
| 2. | Oh, praise the Lord, man died in God |
| | And to an end was brought! |
| | Now from this man I'm wholly free |
| | For God has terminated me! |
| | Oh, what a wondrous death, |
| | Oh, what a wondrous death; |
| | Oh, hallelujah, for such a death! |
| 3. | Oh, praise the Lord, God died in man, |
| | In man to be released. |
| | The grain of wheat fell to the ground, |
| | And now a multitude is found |
| | Filled with the life of God, |
| | Filled with the life of God; |
| | Oh, hallelujah, for such a life! |
| 4. | Lord, how we praise You for Your |
| | cross, |
| | Your all-inclusive death! |
| | The center of universe, |
| | It has untold, eternal worth! |
| | Lord, how we love Your cross, |
| | Lord, how we love Your cross; |
| | Oh, hallelujah, for such a cross! |
