JH Hall. Biography of Gospel Song and Hymn Writers. 1914. Fleming H. Revell Company: New York LYRICS: V1 Man of sorrows what a name For the Son of God, who came Ruined sinners to reclaim: Hallelujah, what a Savior! V2 Bearing shame and scoffing rude, In my place condemned he stood, Sealed my pardon with his blood: Hallelujah, what a Savior! V3 Guilty, helpless, lost were we; Blameless Lamb of God was he, Sacrificed to set us free: Hallelujah, what a Savior! V4 He was lifted up to die; "It is finished" was his cry; Now in heaven exalted high: Hallelujah, what a Savior! V5 When he comes, our glorious King, All his ransomed home to bring, Then anew this song we'll sing: Hallelujah, what a Savior!
