Low in Thine agony
Low in Thine Agony
Author: Henry Allon Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #3997 Meter: 12.10.12.4 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1. Low in Thine agony,
Bearing Thy cross for me,
Savior divine!
In the dark tempter’s hour,
Quailing beneath his power,
Sorrowing yet more and more,
Thou dost incline.
2. O Lord of Heav’n and earth,
What sorrow unto death
Dost Thou sustain?
Thou dost in anguish bow:
Thou art forsaken now;
For me this cup of woe
Thou dost now drain.
3. In deep and trembling fears,
With crying strong and tears,
Now Thou dost pray.
If it be possible
This cup so terrible,
Father most merciful,
Take it away.
4. Yet, Lord, Thy will be done;
Lo, I, Thine only Son,
This cup will drink.
O wondrous love of Thine,
Unspeakable, divine;
To save this soul of mine
Thou wilt not shrink.
5. Savior, give me to share
Thy lowly will and prayer
In all my woe;
In my soul’s agony
Let me resemble Thee;
An angel strengthening me,
Let me, too, know.
6. Thy soul its travail saw,
And in its heavy woe
Was satisfied.
So let Thy sorrow, Lord,
Fullness of joy afford,
To life and God restored,
Through Him who died. Languages: English Tune Title: ABINGER

Henry Allon
1818 - 1892 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Author of "Low in Thine Agony" in The Cyber Hymnal Allon, Henry, D.D., an Independent Minister, born at Welton, near Hull, October 18, 1818, and educated at Cheshunt College, Herts. In 1844 he became co-pastor with the Rev. T. Lewis of the Union Chapel, Islington, and succeeded to the sole pastorate on the death of Mr. Lewis in 1852. In 1865 Dr. Allon became co-editor with Dr. Reynolds of the British Quarterly Review, and in 1877 the sole editor of that journal. His Memoir of the Rev. J. Sherman, published in 1863, and his Sermons on The Vision of God, 1876, are well known. As a composer of hymns he is represented by one hymn only, "Low in Thine agony," a good hymn for Passiontide, contributed to his Supplemental Hymns, 1868, No. 24. His services to Hymnody, especially in the musical department, have been of value. In addition to acting as co-editor of the New Congregational Hymn Book 1859, he published Supplemental Hymns, 1868, enlarged ed. 1875; Children's Worship, 1878; and The Congregational Psalmist Hymnal, 1886. His musical compilations are the Congregational Psalmist, London, 1858, in conjunction with Dr. Gauntlett, in which his Historical Preface and Biographical Notes display considerable research and accuracy (various eds. 1868, 1875, 1883, raising the original 330 to 650 tunes); 2nd sect, of the same, Chant Book. 1860; 3rd sect, Anthems for Congregational Use, 1872; 4th. sect, Tunes for Children's Worship, 1879. These musical works, together with his essay, "The Worship of the Church," contributed to Dr. Reynolds's Ecclesia, 1870; and his most valuable lectures delivered in connection with the Y. M. C. A. in Exeter Hall;--Church Song in its Relation to Church Life, 1861-2; and Psalmody of the Reformation, 1863-4,-—have done much towards raising the musical portion of Nonconformist worship to a higher and more cultured position.
