I was listening to “Hallelujah, What a Savior” this morning and was so blessed to consider the words. Additionally, I am so thankful to the folks at Sovereign Grace, particularly Bob Kauflin for updating the historic hymns in recent days. I love singing songs that are distinctly biblical, that liberals and heretics cannot sing.
Enjoy the words, but enjoy the Savior to whom the words point and reflect.
“Man of Sorrows” what a name
For the Son of God who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim
Hallelujah, what a Savior
Hallelujah, what a Savior
Bearing shame and scoffing rude
In my place condemned He stood
Sealed my pardon with His blood
Guilty vile and helpless we
Spotless Lamb of God was He
Full atonement can it be
Hallelujah, what a Savior
Hallelujah, what a Savior
Lifted up was He to die
“It is finished!” was His cry
Now in heaven exalted high
When He comes, our glorious King
All His ransomed home to bring
Then anew this song we’ll sing
Hallelujah, what a Savior
Hallelujah, what a Savior
