In The Cross Of Christ I Glory

Author: Sir John Bowring Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 1,538 hymnals Topics: Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, Tow'ring 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 thro' all time abide. 5 In the cross of Christ I glory, Tow'ring o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. Used With Tune: [In the cross of Christ I glory]

I was a wandering sheep

Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 500 hymnals Topics: Easter Season, Thrid Sunday Lyrics: 1 I was a wandering sheep, I did not love the fold; I did not love my Shepherd's voice, I would not be controlled. I was a wayward child, I did not love my home; I did not love my Father's voice, I loved afar to roam. 2 The Shepherd sought His sheep, The Father sought His child; They followed me o'er vale and hill, O'er deserts waste and wild: They found me nigh to death, Famished, and faint, and lone; They bound me with the bands of love, They saved the wandering one. 3 Jesus my Shepherd is; 'Twas He that loved my soul, 'Twas He that washed me in His Blood, 'Twas He that made me whole. 'Twas He that sought the lost, That found the wandering sheep; 'Twas He that brought me to the fold, 'Tis He that still doth keep. 4 I was a wandering sheep, I would not be controlled; But now I love my Shepherd's voice, I love, I love the fold! I was a wayward child, I once preferred to roam; But now I love my Father's voice, I love, I love His home. Used With Tune: THESSALONICA

It Was A Cross, The Cruel Bed They Made Him

Author: Chr. Richardt. Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 It was a cross, the cruel bed they made Him Who came to save the sinners that betrayed Him. With sinful scorn they cursed Him in their blindness Who spotless walked among them, full of kindness. 2 And now the cross, that emblem of salvation, Is seen on spires in ev'ry land and nation. The golden cross reflects the sunset glory And thousands praise it now in song and story. 3 It waves aloft on banners o'er the ocean, And multitudes regard it with devotion. Where Christ leads on, with palms and songs they hail Him; But who will bear the cross, and never fail Him? 4 We lightly lay the cross upon our neighbor; To bear our own is painful toil and labor, But if at sunset thou wouldst see salvation, Then follow Christ through trials and temptation. 5 For you, who walk with Him in pain and sadness, The gate of death will open wide to gladness; And if the cross be here our staff, it braces Our weary feet in rough and stony places.
