My Lord’s Appearance

My Lord’s appearance disfigured and bruised

He bled out for me was whipped and abused

Took on my beatings and lashed in my place

His honor was stripped to clothe me in grace

ጌታዬ ሆነ ደም ግባት አልባ

ጀርባው በጅራፍ ስለእኔ ደማ

የእኔን መገረፍ እርሱ ተገርፎ

ክብር አለበሰኝ የእርሱ ተገፎ 

Trapped within hatred falsely convicted

The Lord gave me life while apprehended

The wicked see Him as an offender

But for me He is my liberator

You were chained to spare us

My Savior, Christ Jesus

My Lord’s appearance disfigured and bruised

He bled out for me was whipped and abused

Took on my beatings and lashed in my place

His honor was stripped to clothe me in grace

They had spat on Him mocked and insulted

Boldly ridiculed they were conceited

Encircled by them He refused to speak

To give me a voice stayed quiet and meek

You were slain to spare us

My Savior, Christ Jesus 

My Lord’s appearance disfigured and bruised

He bled out for me was whipped and abused

Took on my beatings and lashed in my place

His honor was stripped to clothe me in grace

In Him we found life poured from His punctures

Redeemed the watchers and the accusers

When His arms and legs were struck and were nailed

He had plucked my thorn from death we prevailed 

You were pierced to spare us

My Savior, Christ Jesus

My Lord’s appearance disfigured and bruised

He bled out for me was whipped and abused

Took on my beatings and lashed in my place

His honor was stripped to clothe me in grace

While bare and exposed He covered my shame

Out of His pure love vinegar He drank

With His stream of grace He had quenched my soul

He paid the great price and He made me whole

You were parched to spare us

My Savior, Christ Jesus 

My Lord’s appearance disfigured and bruised

He bled out for me was whipped and abused

Took on my beatings and lashed in my place

His honor was stripped to clothe me in grace

ጌታዬ ሆነ ደም ግባት አልባ

ጀርባው በጅራፍ ስለእኔ ደማ

የእኔን መገረፍ እርሱ ተገርፎ

ክብር አለበሰኝ የእርሱ ተገፎ
