Verso 1

I saw One hanging on a tree
In agony and blood
Who fixed His languid eyes on me
As near His cross I stood

Coro

O can it be upon a tree
The Savior died for me
My soul is thrilled my heart is filled
To think He died for me

Verso 2

Sure never to my latest breath
Can I forget that look
It seemed to charge me with His death
Though not a word He spoke

Coro

O can it be upon a tree
The Savior died for me
My soul is thrilled my heart is filled
To think He died for me

Verso 3

My conscience felt and owned the guilt
And plunged me in despair
I saw my sins His blood had spilt
And helped to nail Him there

Coro

O can it be upon a tree
The Savior died for me
My soul is thrilled my heart is filled
To think He died for me

Verso 4

A second look He gave which said
I freely all forgive
This blood is for thy ransom paid
I die that thou may live

Coro

O can it be upon a tree
The Savior died for me
My soul is thrilled my heart is filled
To think He died for me
