Primary Scripture: Isaiah 35:10

Verse 1

Man of sorrows what a name for the Son of God, who came ruined sinners to reclaim: Hallelujah, what a Savior!

Verse 2

Bearing shame and scoffing rude, in my place condemned he stood, sealed my pardon with his blood: Hallelujah, what a Savior!

Guilty, helpless, lost were we; blameless Lamb of God was he, sacrificed to set us free: Hallelujah, what a Savior!

Verse 4

He was lifted up to die; "It is finished" was his cry; now in heaven exalted high: Hallelujah, what a Savior!

Verse 5

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