This hymn has a unique tune.

 
 1 

It was alone the Savior prayed

In dark Gethsemane;

Alone He drained the bitter cup

And suffered there for me.

 

Alone, alone,

He bore it all alone;

He gave Himself to save His own,

He suffered, bled and died alone, alone.

 
 2 

It was alone the Savior stood

In Pilate's judgment hall;

Alone the crown of thorns He wore,

Forsaken thus by all.

 

Alone, alone,

He bore it all alone;

He gave Himself to save His own,

He suffered, bled and died alone, alone.

 
 3 

Alone upon the cross He hung

That others He might save;

Forsaken then by God and man.

Alone, His life He gave.

 

Alone, alone,

He bore it all alone;

He gave Himself to save His own,

He suffered, bled and died alone, alone.

 
 4 

Can you reject such matchless love?

Can you His claim disown?

Come, give your all in gratitude,

Nor leave Him thus alone.

 

Alone, alone,

He bore it all alone;

He gave Himself to save His own,

He suffered, bled and died alone, alone.
