Author: Unknown Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 115 hymnals First Line: Dark was the night and cold the ground Lyrics: 1 Dark was the night, and cold the ground On which the Lord was laid; His sweat like drops of blood ran down; In agony He prayed. 2 "Father, remove this bitter cup, If such Thy sacred will; If not, content to drink it up Thy pleasure I fulfill." 3 Go the the garden, sinner, see Those precious drops that flow; The heavy load He bore for thee; For thee He lies so low. 4 Then learn of Him the cross to bear; Thy Father's will obey; And when temptations press thee near, Awake to watch and pray.

For Victorious Faith

Appears in 691 hymnals First Line: O for a faith that will not shrink Lyrics: 1 O for a faith that will not shrink, Though pressed by every foe, That will not tremble on the brink Of any earthly woe! 2 That will not murmur nor complain Beneath the chastening rod, But, in the hour of grief or pain, Will lean upon its God. 3 A faith that keeps the narrow way Till life's last hour is fled, And with a pure and heavenly ray Illumes a dying bed. 4 Lord, give us such a faith as this, And then, whate'er may come, We'll taste, e'en here, the hallowed bliss Of an eternal home.
