A purple robe, a crown of thorn

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (born 1926) Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 A purple robe, a crown of thorn, a reed in his right hand; before the soldiers’ spite and scorn I see my saviour stand. 2 He bears between the Roman guard the weight of all our woe; a stumbling figure, bowed and scarred I see my saviour go. 3 Fast to the cross's spreading span, high in the sunlit air, all the unnumbered sins of man I see my saviour bear. 4 He hangs, by whom the world was made, beneath the darkened sky; the everlasting ransom paid, I see my saviour die. 5 He shares on high his Father’s throne who once in mercy came; for all his love to sinners shown I sing my saviour’s name.
