The Agony and Bloody Sweat

Author: James Relly Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Luke 22:41-44 First Line: Thy conflicts, Christ, in agony Lyrics: 1 Thy conflicts, Christ, in agony, When strengthen'd by a kind support, Shews how our pond'rous load did lie With anguish on thy very heart. 2 Trembling beneath our curse and woe, With groans in most excessive pain, Thy bloody sweat, like rivers flow, Collected from descending rain. 3 Now see him destin'd to the cross, With dreadful horrour sore oppress'd, There sin sustain'd its endless loss, And all transgression there hath ceas'd. 4 High as an ensign there he hangs In blood, by Heav'n and earth forsook; All nature groan'd in dreadful pangs, And earth's foundations rudely shook. 5 His life expiring with a groan, His soul starts from his body torn; The bride came to her native home, From all his wonds renew'd and born. 6 'Tis finish'd! loud the cho sounds, Our ransom price is fully paid; The Father's pleas'd to see those wounds, Where sin is slain, and vengeance staid. 7 His lifeless body drain'd of blood, Then was fulfil'd the faithful word, Spoken by old by men of God; How nature spoil'd should be restor'd; 8 'T'was done when radinat he arose Triumphant over death and hell; Then in him rose the darling spouse, With him in all his bliss to dwell. 9 God's royal clothing naw are we, And he hath mark'd us with his name, Together with the Son made free, Forever perfect without blame; 10 One life, one joy, with him we have; Whilst in this world's bewilder'd maze, We nothing more desire or crave, Incessantly we Jesus praise!

John xix. 2. 9 A.M With the crown of thorns they crown Thee, Scornfully they bow; On the Father’s throne in glory Thou art seated now.

You Saved the Best Till Now

Author: David Neff Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Luke 22:15-16 First Line: At Cana's wedding feast, the guests Lyrics: 1. At Cana's wedding feast, the guests with your dear presence, Lord, were blessed. Their eyes were dimmed with common wine, but to your own, you gave a sign that laws and rites were soon to cease for God himself was at their feast. And when they'd drunk, they tasted how you'd saved the best of wines till now. 2. And then at table with your few, you showed the covenant made new. The paschal bread and wine you gave for us became the means to save the world from sin and stubborn ways and us from death and hell to raise. And when we drink, by faith we know you've saved the best of wines till now. 3. And when in heaven we shall sup and at the Lamb's feast drain the cup, no mystic wine or sacred bread shall stand between us in your stead; but that bright banquet's hosts shall be the blessed holy Trinity. And then we'll know, all sorrows past, you've saved the best of wines till last. Used With Tune: [At Cana's wedding feast, the guests]
