Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Angels, lament, behold your God 
Angels, lament: behold your God man’s sinful likeness wears; behold, upon the accursèd tree man’s sins the Savior bears. 
O Christ with wondering minds we see what mighty love was thine; did God consent to suffer thus, and, O shall man repine. 
No, Savior, no! the power of death thy cross hath overcome, to save us, not from earthly woe but from th’eternal doom. 
The flesh may shrink, but we submit, whate’er our cross may be, so thou by grace enable us to bear it after thee. 
Thy stripes have healed us, and thy blood our guilty stains effaced; than may thy Name by sin of ours be never more disgraced.
