Man of Sorrows

Begotten son, man of sorrows
      King of Kings, Lord of Lords
                          
                          Y
                 Y       E       T
                          T
   
     Unto His head, crown of thorns
    Beaten hard and cruelly scorned
 Carried a cross, so heavy and gross
Walking the path, mocks the applause
      Silence, all His answered clause

  Obedient to follow the Father's will
      Upon the slope of Calvary hill
      His precious blood was spilled
         He suffered and get killed

           Sin of man, will of God
          All he done and resolved
            Salvation and new life 
        To us believers, He bestow
