Heptatonic, minor (I II 3 IV V 6 VII)

[Music]

Alas! and did my Savior bleed,

And did my Sov'reign die?

Would he devote that sacred head

For such a worm as I?

I yield, I yield, I yield,

I can hold out no more;

I sink by dying love compell'd,

And own thee conqueror.

I suggest the possibility that the editor of the _Revivalist_ made his

tune over from one which was originally in the dorian mode.
