1 Ah, dear-est Je - sus, how hast Thou of -fend-ed,
2 Who was the guil-ty? Who brought this up -on Thee?
3 For me, dear Je - sus, was Thine in - car-na - tion,
4 There-fore, dear Je - sus, since I can - not pay Thee,
1 That man to judge Thee hath in hate pre -te---end-ed?
2 A - las, my trea -son, Jesus, hath un - do---one Thee.
3 Thy mor - tal sor - row, and Thy life's ob-la---a - tion;
4 I do a - dore Thee, and will ever pra--ay Thee,
1 By foes de - rid -ed, by Thine own re - ject -ed,
2 'Twas I, Lord Je - sus, I it was de - nied Thee:
3 Thy death of an - guish and Thy bit -ter pas - sion,
4 Think on Thy pi - ty and Thy love un - swerv-ing
1 O most af -fli-ict-ed.
2 I cru -ci -fi--ied Thee.
3 For my sal-va--a -tion.
4 Not my de -se--erv-ing.
