LyicsIt is finish'd! Man of Sorrows!
From the cross our frailty borrows
Strength to bear and conquer thus;
While extended there we view Thee,
Mighty Suff'rer! draw us to Thee;
Sufferer victorious!
No in vain for us uplifted,
Man of Sorrows, wonder-gifted!
May that sacred emblem be;
Lifted high amid the ages,
Guide of heroes, saints, and sages,
May it guide us still to Thee!
