Christ, the Life of All the Living
Author: Ernst Christopher Homburg; Miss Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #91 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Christ, the Life of all the living,
Christ the Death of death our foe,
Who, Thyself for us once giving
To the darkest depths of woe,
Patiently didst yield Thy breath,
But to save my soul from death,
Praise and glory ever be,
Blessed Jesus, unto Thee.
2 Thou, O Thou, hast taken on Thee
Bitter strokes, a cruel rod;
Pain and scorn were heaped upon Thee,
0 Thou sinless Son of God.
Thus didst Thou our souls deliver
From the bonds of sin forever;
Praise and glory ever be,
Blessed Jesus, unto thee.
3 Thou didst bear the smiting only,
That it might not fall on me;
Stoodest falsely charged and lonely,
That I might be safe and free;
Comfortless Thy soul did languish
To bring comfort in our anguish;
Praise and glory ever be,
Blessed Jesus, unto thee.
4 Then for all that wrought our pardon,
For Thy sorrows deep and sore,
For Thine anguish in the garden,
I will thank Thee evermore;
To my latest breath I'll offer
Thanks for all that Thou didst suffer,
For that last last expiring sigh
Praise Thee evermore on high.
