"Pierced For Our Sake" is a hymn that meditates on the profound love and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, as revealed in the piercing of His side on the cross. Inspired by John 19:34, this song reflects on the moment when blood and water flowed from Jesus' wound, symbolizing the outpouring of redemption and the birth of the Church. Each verse invites the listener to contemplate the physical and spiritual depths of Christ's suffering and the boundless mercy extended to humanity through His sacrifice.

The hymn's verses paint a vivid picture of the crucifixion, emphasizing the paradox of pain and love — a moment of agony that became the ultimate act of grace. The recurring chorus draws worshipers to the "sacred side," a place where sins are washed away and hearts are renewed in the purity of Christ's love. The bridge highlights the dual symbolism of blood and water: the blood of redemption that atones for sin and the water of life that offers spiritual rebirth.

This hymn is designed to be both reflective and worshipful, serving as a powerful reminder of Christ's love that reaches into the brokenness of the world. It is ideal for use during Holy Week, Eucharistic Adoration, or any moment of prayerful reflection on the Passion of Christ. Through its lyrics and melody, "Pierced For Our Sake" seeks to draw believers closer to the heart of Jesus, the source of salvation and peace.

Scored for a Vocal Quartet (SATB) with Piano accompaniment. Accessible and appropriate for any church setting. An accompaniment track is also available.
