O Darkest Woe
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Johann Rist; Anon. Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #397 (1930) Meter: 4.4.7.7.6 First Line: O darkest woe! Lyrics: 1 O darkest woe!
Ye tears, forth flow!
Has earth so sad a wonder,
That the Father's only Son
Now lies buried yonder!
2 O sorrow dread!
Our God is dead,
But by His expiation
Of our guilt upon the cross
Gained for us salvation.
3 O sinful man!
It was the ban
Of death on thee that bro't Him
Down to suffer for thy sins
And such woe hath wrought Him.
4 O ground of faith,
Laid low in death!
Sweet lips now silent sleeping:
Surely all that live must mourn
Here with bitter weeping.
5 O blest shall be
Whose heart shall be
Fixed here, who apprehendeth
Why the Lord of glory thus
To the grace descendeth.
6 O Jesus blest,
My Help and Rest,
With tears I now entreat Thee:
Make me love Thee to the last,
Till in heaven I greet Thee!

O darkest woe!
Author: Rist Hymnal: Chorale Book for England, The #54 (1863) Lyrics:
O darkest woe!
Ye tears forth flow!
Has earth so sad a wonder,
That the Father's only Son
Now lies buried yonder!
O son of man!
It was the ban
Of death on thee that brought Him
Down to suffer for thy sins,
And such woe hath wrought Him.
Behold thy Lord,
The Lamb of God,
Blood-sprinkled lies before thee,
Pouring out His life that He
May to life restore thee.
O Ground of faith
Laid low in death!
Sweet lips now silent sleeping!
Surely all that live must mourn
Here with bitter weeping.
Yea, blest is he
Whose heart shall be
Fix'd here, and apprehendeth
Why the Lord of glory thus
To the grave descendeth.
O Jesu blest!
My help and rest!
With tears I pray--Lord, hear me;
Make me love Thee to the last,
In the grave be near me!
