Author: Edward Caswall (1814-1878) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,023 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:15 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the very thought of thee

nor can the memory find
a sweeter sound than thy blest name,
Saviour of humankind!

O joy of all the meek,
to those who fall how kind thou art!
how good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? Ah, this
nor tongue nor pen can show;
the love of Jesus, what it is
none but his loved ones know.

and through eternity. Topics: Our Response to Christ In Devotion; Adoration Of Jesus; Jesus love of all; Longing Used With Tune: ST. AGNES (DYKES) Text Sources: Probably 12th century; Lyra Catholica, 1849

with grief and shame weighed down!
O Kingly Head, surrounded
with thorns, thine only crown!
How pale art thou with anguish,
with sore abuse and scorn!
How does that face now languish,
which once was bright as morn!
2 O Lord of life and glory,
what bliss till now was thine!
I read the wondrous story;
I joy to call thee mine.
Thy grief and bitter Passion
were all for sinners' gain;
mine, mine was the transgression,
but thine the deadly pain.
3 What language shall I borrow
to praise thee, heavenly Friend,
for this, thy dying sorrow,
thy pity without end?
O make me thine for ever,
and, should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
outlive my love for thee.
4 Be near me, Lord, when dying;
O show thy cross to me;
and, my last need supplying,
come, Lord, and set me free;
these eyes, new faith receiving,
from thee shall never move;
for they who die believing
die safely through thy love. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnante - Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday; Death and Bereavement; Devotion Used With Tune: PASSION CHORALE

I ever with thee and thou with me, Lord;
thou my soul’s shelter, and thou my high tower;

Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
still be my vision, O Ruler of all.
