O bleeding head, so wounded, Reviled and put to scorn. The pow'r of death comes o'er you, The glow of life decays, Yet angel hosts adore you, And tremble as they gaze. 2 In this your bitter passion, Good Shepherd, think of me With your most sweet compassion, Unworthy though I be: Beneath your cross abiding For ever would I rest, In your dear love confiding, And with your presence blest. 3 Christ Jesus, we adore you, Our thorn-crowned Lord and King. We bow our heads before you, And to your cross we cling. Lord, give us strength to bear it With patience and with love, That we may truly merit A glorious crown above.
