Matt Redman
Son of Suffering
[Verse 1]
Oh, the perfect Son of God
In all His innocence
Walking in the dirt with you and me
He knows what living is
He's acquainted with our griefs
A man of sorrows, Son of suffering

[Chorus]
Oh, blood and tears, how can it be
There's a God who weeps? There's a God who bleeds?
Oh, praise the One who would reach for me
Hallelujah to the Son of suffering

[Verse 2]
Some imagine You
Are distant and removed
But You chased us down in merciful pursuit
To the sinner, You were grace
And the broken You embraced
And in the end the proof is in Your wounds
Yes, in the end the proof is in Your wounds

[Chorus]
Blood and tears, how can it be
There's a God who weeps? There's a God who bleeds?
Oh, praise the One who would reach for me
Hallelujah to the Son of suffering
[Bridge]
Your cross, my freedom
Your stripes, my healing
All praise King Jesus
Glory to God in Heaven
Your blood is still speaking
Your love is still reaching
And all praise King Jesus
Glory to God forever
Your cross, my freedom
Your stripes, my healing
All praise King Jesus
Glory to God in Heaven
Your blood is still speaking
Your love is still reaching
All praise King Jesus
Glory to God forever
Your cross, my freedom
Your stripes, my healing
All praise King Jesus
Glory to God in Heaven
Your blood is still speaking
Your love is still reaching
All praise King Jesus
Glory to God forever
[Chorus]
Blood and tears, how can it be
There's a God who weeps? There's a God who bleeds?
Oh, praise the One who would reach for me
Oh, hallelujah to the Son of suffering

[Post-Chorus]
Sing hallelujah to the Son of Suffering
Oh, hallelujah to the Son of Suffering
Hallelujah
Hallelujah, glory, glory
Glory to God forever, forever and ever

[Outro]
And what can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
And what can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
And, oh, precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Glory to God forever
Glory to God forever
Glory to God forever
Glory to God forever
