Christ in Song 159

Shall Our Cheeks Be Dry?

Studio

1Did Christ o'er sinners weep?
And shall our cheeks be dry?
Let floods of penitential grief Burst forth from ev'ry eye.

2The Son of God in tears,
The wond'ring angels see!
Be thou astonished,
O my soul!
He shed those tears for thee.

3He wept; shall we not weep?
He died; shall we not die?
He rose; shall we not rise from sleep,
To reign with Him on high?
