And did my Sovereign die!
Would he devote that sacred head
For such a worm as I!
2 Was it for crimes that I had done
He groaned upon the tree!
Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut his glories in,
When Christ, the mighty Maker, died
For man the creature's sin.
4 Thus might I hide my blushing face
While his dear cross appears;
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt mine eyes in tears.
5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love I owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away,
'Tis all that I can do.
Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 53:5 Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM

By crown of piercing thorn!
O bleeding head, so wounded,
Reviled and put to scorn!
The pow'r of death comes o'er you,
The glow of life decays,
Yet angel hosts adore you
And tremble as they gaze.
2 I see your strength and vigor
All fading in the strife,
And death with cruel rigor,
Bereaving you of life.
O agony and dying!
O love to sinners free!
Jesus, all grace supplying,
O turn your face on me.
3 In this, your bitter passion,
Good Shepherd, think of me
With your most sweet compassion.
Unworthy though I be:
Beneath your cross abiding
Forever would I rest,
In your dear love confiding,
And with your presence blest. Scripture: Mark 15:17-18 Used With Tune: PASSION CHORALE Text Sources: Salve caput cruentatum

and make a joyful duty our sacrifice of praise. Used With Tune: THAXTED
