Chorus: I suffered in silence because of your sin, I died broken-hearted to save sinful men. 2 I plead by the cross, where I suffered and died;- I point to the wounds in My hands, feet and side; O let Me come into your heart and remain, The King of Redemption forever to reign. [Chorus] 3 I rose from the grave and ascended on high, While angels were chanting their songs in the sky; Thro' ages unending the theme of My love Shall sound thro' the mansions of glory above.
