Mary, weep not, weep no longer

Author: Laurence Housman, 1865-1959 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #174 (1986) Lyrics: 1 Mary, weep not, weep no longer, Now thy heart hath gained its goal; Here, in truth, the Gardener standeth, But the Gardener of thy soul, Who within thy spirit's garden By his love hath made thee whole. 2 Now from grief and lamentation Lift thy drooping heart with cheer; While for love of him thou mournest, Lo, thy Lord regained is here! Fainting for him, thou hast found him; All unknown, behold him near! 3 *Whence thy sorrow, whence thy weeping, Since with thee true bliss abides? In thy heart, though undiscovered, Balm of consolation hides: Holding all, thou canst no longer Lack the cure that Health provides. 4 Nay, no wonder if she knows not Till the Sower's seed be sown, Till from him, the Word eternal, Light within her heart is thrown. Now he calls her, and 'Rabboni,' She in turn her Lord doth own. 5 Faith that washed the feet of Jesus, Fed with dew the Fount of Grace Win for us a like compassion, That, with all the ransomed race, At the glory of his rising We may see him face to face. 6 Glory be to God and honour, Who, preferring sacrifice, Far above the rich man's bounty, Sweetness found in Mary's sighs, Who for all, his love foretasting, Spreads the banquet of the skies. Amen. Topics: St. Mary Magdalene July 22nd; Office Hymn; The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper Languages: English Tune Title: URBS BEATA
