'Twas on that dreadful, doleful night

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #514 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Means of Grace The Lord's Supper Lyrics: 1 'Twas on that dreadful, doleful night, When the whole pow'r of darkness rose Against the Son of God's delight, And friends betray'd him to his foes; 2 Before the mournful scene began, He took the bread, and bless'd, and brake; What love through all his actions ran! What wondrous words of grace he spake! 3 "This is my body broke for sin; Receive and eat the living food." Then took the cup and bless'd the wine: "'Tis the new cov'nant in my blood." 4 "Do this (he cried) till time shall end, In mem'ry of your dying friend: Meet at my table, and record The love of your departed Lord."

Come see on bloody Calvary

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #523 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Means of Grace The Lord's Supper Lyrics: 1 Come see on bloody Calvary, Suspended on th'accursed tree, A harmless suff'rer cover'd o'er With shame, and welt'ring in his gore. 2 Is this the Saviour long foretold To usher in the age of gold? To make the reign of sorrow cease, And bind the jarring world in peace? 3 'Tis He, 'tis He!--he kindly shrouds His glories in a night of clouds, That souls might from their ruin rise, And heir th'imperishable skies. 4 See, to their refuge and their rest, From all the bonds of guilt releas'd, Transgressors to his cross repair, And find a full redemption there. 5 Jesus, what millions of our race Have been the triumphs of thy grace! And millions more to thee shall fly, And on thy sacrifice rely.

Grant in mercy that I never Cease to love Thy precious Word. By its teachings so appealing May it keep me firm and true; At Thy feet with Mary kneeling, I would learn Thy will to do.

Or there Thy conflict see, Thine agony and bloody sweat, And not remember Thee? 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes, And rest on Calvary, O Lamb of God, my Sacrifice, I must remember Thee. 5 And when these failing lips grow dumb, And mind and mem'ry flee, When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come, Then, Lord, remember me. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE

He calls me still; can I delay? 3 God calling yet! -- and shall He knock, And I my heart the closer lock? He still is waiting to receive, And shall I dare His Spirit grieve? 4 God calling yet! - and shall I give No heed, but still in bondage live? I wait, but He does not forsake; He calls me still; -- my heart, awake! 5 Ah, yield Him all; in Him confide; Where but with Him doth peace abide? Break loose, let earthly bonds be riv'n, And let the spirit rise to heav'n! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HAMBURG

O love that passeth knowledge, So patiently to wait! O sin that hath no equal, So fast to bar the gate! 3 O Jesus, Thou art pleading In accents meek and low, I died for you, My children, And will ye treat Me so? O Lord, with shame and sorrow We open now the door; Dear Savior, enter, enter, And leave us nevermore! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. EDITH
