Crucified.

O SAD, reproachful Face, How can I look and live? O pierced Hands outstretched to save! O Voice that pleads, "Forgive!"
"Forgive!" though crowned with thorns, And mocked with many a jeer; "Forgive?" though tortured by the nails, And wounded by the spear!
O crimson tide of love, Outgushing from His side, Flow down, and wash the guilty earth, Where He is still denied!
In penitence my soul Takes up that cry, "Forgive!" Flow down, and wash away my sins, That I may look and live!
