MAN OF SORROWS‐‐WHAT A NAME  G (G/F#) Em B 1 "Man of Sorrows," what a name 2 Bearing shame and scoffing rude, 3 Guilty, vile, and helpless me, 4 Lifted up was He to die; 5 When He comes, our glorious King, C G D A D 1 For the Son of God, who came 2 In my place con-demned He stood, 3 Spotless Lamb of God was He. 4 "It is finished," was His cry; 5 All His ransomed home to bring, G (G/F#) Em C G 1 Ruined sinners to re - claim! 2 Sealed my pardon with His Blood. 3 Full a-tonement! Can it be? 4 Now in Heaven ex-alt -ed high! 5 Then a-new this song we'll sing: G (D) G D Em C G * Hal-le-lu-jah! What a Sa-vior Unusual Chords: G/F# 220003 Notes: Whenever I've sung this, the last line is always done slower, starting with "lu" of Hallelujah, and going at about half speed from there. (Your preference may vary.) The G/F# isn't in any music I found. But it’s good. Skipping the D in the last line works just fine. If you're doing it at a faster tempo, in place of the D try G9 (320201).
