This week, we will sing together in our Morning Gathering, Man of Sorrows. With it's simple lyric and memorable chorus, this meditation on the passion of Christ and the gospel will serve us well in our corporate gatherings and in our homes as we reflect on Christ's work on the cross.

Lyrics
VERSE
Man of sorrows Lamb of God
By His own betrayed
The sin of man and wrath of God
Has been on Jesus laid
Silent as He stood accused
Beaten mocked and scorned
Bowing to the Father's will
He took a crown of thorns
CHORUS
Oh that rugged cross
My salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out
Hallelujah
Praise and honour unto Thee
VERSE
Sent of heaven God's own Son
To purchase and redeem
And reconcile the very ones
Who nailed Him to that tree
BRIDGE
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
VERSE
See the stone is rolled away
Behold the empty tomb
Hallelujah God be praised
He's risen from the grave
