An Upper Room Did Our Lord Prepare
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 9.8.9.8 Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Passion and Death Lyrics: 1 An upper room did our Lord prepare
for those he loved until the end:
and his disciples still gather there
to celebrate their risen friend.
2 A lasting gift Jesus gave his own:
to share his bread, his loving cup.
Whatever burdens may bow us down,
he by his cross shall lift us up.
3 And after supper he washed their feet,
for service, too, is sacrament.
In Christ our joy shall be made complete:
sent out to serve, as he was sent.
4 No end there is! We depart in peace.
He loves beyond our uttermost:
in every room in our Father's house
Christ will be there, as Lord and Host. Scripture: Matthew 26:26-28 Used With Tune: O WALY WALY

My Song Is Love Unknown
Author: Samuel Crossman Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 129 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Passion and Death Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown,
my Savior's love to me,
love to the loveless shown
that they might lovely be.
O who am I
that for my sake
my Lord should take
frail flesh, and die?
2 He came from heaven’s throne
salvation to bestow;
the world that was his own
would not its Savior know.
But O my Friend,
my Friend indeed,
who at my need
his life did spend!
3 Sometimes we strew his way,
and his sweet praises sing,
resounding all the day
hosannas to our King.
Then "Crucify!"
is all our breath,
and for his death
we thirst and cry.
4 Unheeding, we will have
our dear Lord made away,
a murderer to save,
the prince of life to slay.
Yet steadfast he
to suffering goes,
that he his foes
from thence might free.
5 Here might I stay and sing,
no story so divine:
never was love, dear King,
never was grief like thine.
This is my Friend,
in whose sweet praise
I all my days
could gladly spend. Scripture: Lamentations 1:12 Used With Tune: LOVE UNKNOWN
My Song Is Love Unknown

Author: John Bowring Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 1,537 hymnals Topics: Christ Passion; Passion First Line: In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering over the wrecks of time Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory,
towering o'er the wrecks of time;
all the light of sacred story
gathers round its head sublime.
2 When the woes of life o'ertake me,
hopes deceive, and fears annoy,
never shall the cross forsake me.
Lo! it glows with peace and joy.
3 When the sun of bliss is beaming
light and love upon my way,
from the cross the radiance streaming
adds more luster to the day.
4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure,
by the cross are sanctified;
peace is there that knows no measure,
joys that through all time abide.
5 In the cross of Christ I glory,
towering o'er the wrecks of time;
all the light of sacred story
gathers round its head sublime.

The Lord my Shepherd is

What can I want beside?

Where heavenly pasture grows,
Where living waters gently pass,
And full salvation flows.

He doth my Soul reclaim;
And guides me in His own right way,
For His most holy Name.

I cannot yield to fear;
Though I should walk through death's dark shade,
My Shepherd's with me there.
5 The bounties of Thy love
Shall crown my following days;
Nor from Thy house will I remove,
Nor cease to speak Thy praise. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: BETHLEHEM
