මොන පුදුම පුදුමයක්ද?
මා නිසා කුරුසේ මළේ
වැගුරුවේ ඒ අනගි ලේ
පව්කාර මා මුදන්ටද?
මා නිසයි ඇණ ගැසුවේ //
කුරුසේ ඇනුම්කා හිමි මළේ
මා නිසයි ඇණ ගැසුවේ
අත්හැරියා සම්පත සගේ
පියාගේ කැමැත්තයි කළේ
කන්නියාවකු ගෙන් උපන්නා
මිනිස් ශරීරයක් ගත්තා
තුවාල වුනා පාපෙ නිසා
දුක් කුරුසියේ දැරුවා
සැම රෝගත් උසුලා ගත්තා
මේ ලොව හිමි වැඩලා
දුන්නා ජීවිතේ අනුන් නිසා
මේ ලොව පාපෙන් මුදන්ටා
ගියා සූදානම් කරන්නටා
මාලිගාවක් මට යන්නටා
What a wonderful, wonderful Saviour,
Who would die on the cross for me!
Freely shedding His precious lifeblood,
That the sinner might be made free.
Chorus:
He was nailed to the cross for me,
He was nailed to the cross for me;
On the cross crucified, for me He died;
He was nailed to the cross for me.
Thus He left His heavenly glory,
To accomplish His Father’s plan;
He was born of the virgin Mary,
Took upon Him the form of man.
Chorus…
He was wounded for our transgressions,
And He carried our sorrows, too;
He’s the Healer of ev’ry sickness,
This He came to the world to do.
Chorus…
So He gave His life for others
In redeeming this world from sin,
And He’s gone to prepare a mansion,
That at last we may enter in.
Chorus…
Frederick Arthur Graves - 1856-1927
Who would die on the cross for me!
Freely shedding His precious lifeblood,
That the sinner might be made free.
He was nailed to the cross for me,
He was nailed to the cross for me;
On the cross crucified, for me He died;
He was nailed to the cross for me.
Thus He left His heavenly glory,
To accomplish His Father’s plan;
He was born of the virgin Mary,
Took upon Him the form of man.
He was wounded for our transgressions,
And He carried our sorrows, too;
He’s the Healer of ev’ry sickness,
This He came to the world to do.
So He gave His life for others
In redeeming this world from sin,
And He’s gone to prepare a mansion,
That at last we may enter in.
