More Marred Than Any Man’s

lyricist: William Russell, 1861
Composer: William Monk, 1875

More marred than any man’s

The Sav­ior’s vis­age see;

Was ev­er sor­row like to His

Endured on Cal­va­ry!

Oh

hear that pierc­ing cry!

What can its mean­ing be?

My God! my God! oh! why hast Thou

In wrath for­sak­en Me?

Oh ’twas be­cause our sins

On Him by God were laid;

He who Him­self had nev­er sinned

For sin­ners

sin was made.

Thus sin He put away

By His one sac­ri­fice

Then

Con­quer­or o’er death and hell

He mount­ed to the skies.

Therefore let all men know

That God is sa­tis­fied;

And sin­ners all who Je­sus trust

Through Him are jus­ti­fied.
