Man Of Sorrows
Travis Cottrell's 'Man of Sorrows' is a worship song that reflects on the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The lyrics describe Jesus as the suffering servant who bore the sins of humanity, was betrayed, mocked, and crucified, yet willingly submitted to the Father's will. The song emphasizes the atoning power of the cross, the payment of sin's debt through Christ's blood, and the freedom believers receive. It culminates in the joy of the empty tomb, celebrating Jesus' victory over death. The repeated refrain of 'Hallelujah' and praise underscores a response of gratitude and worship for salvation.
Man of sorrows, Lamb of God
By His own betrayed
The sin of man and wrath of God
Has been on Jesus laid
Silent as He stood accused
Beaten, mocked, and scorned
Bowing to the Father's will
He took a crown of thorns
Oh that rugged cross
My salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out
Hallelujah
Praise and honour unto Thee
Sent of heaven, God's own Son
To purchase and redeem
And reconcile the very ones
Who nailed Him to that tree
Oh that rugged cross
My salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out
Hallelujah
Praise and honour unto Thee
Now my debt is paid
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled
Now the curse of sin
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
Now my debt is paid
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled
Now the curse of sin
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
Oh that rugged cross
My salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out
Hallelujah
Praise and honour unto Thee
See the stone is rolled away
Behold the empty tomb
Hallelujah God be praised
He's risen from the grave
Oh that rugged cross
My salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out
Hallelujah
Praise and honour unto Thee
Praise and honour unto Thee
Praise and honour unto Thee
