Sacred Harp 290: ‘Alas! And did my saviour bleed (Victoria)’

Alas! And did my Saviour bleed?
And did my Sov’reign die?

I have but one more river to cross,
And then I’ll be at rest.

Would He devote His sacred head,
For such a worm as I?

I have but one more river to cross,
And then I’ll be at rest.
