They struck and cursed my loving Savior With crown of thorns they pierced His head He bore the shame I should have taken He walked the road I should have tread He could have called ten thousand angels With just one word, escaped the dread He could have walked away from Calv'ry He chose to die for me instead How can I thank my loving Savior What word or thought could e'er express my overwhelming adoration My overflowing thankfulness So oft His love I have forsaken Yet still He comes and breaks the bread He pours the cup of my salvation And raises me up from the dead How can I thank my loving Savior What word or thought could e'er express my overwhelming adoration My overflowing thankfulness How can I thank my loving Savior What word or thought could e'er express my overwhelming adoration My overflowing thankfulness My overwhelming adoration My overflowing thankfulness
