Go to Dark Gethsemane

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 512 hymnals Scripture: Luke 14:27 Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, all who feel the tempter’s power; your Redeemer’s conflict see; watch with him one bitter hour; turn not from his griefs away; learn from Jesus Christ to pray. 2 Follow to the judgment hall; view the Lord of life arraigned; O the wormwood and the gall! O the pangs his soul sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; learn from him to bear the cross. 3 Calvary’s mournful mountain climb; there, adoring at his feet, mark that miracle of time, God’s own sacrifice complete; “It is finished!” hear him cry; learn from Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb where they laid his breathless clay: all is solitude and gloom. Who has taken him away? Christ is risen! He meets our eyes. Savior, teach us so to rise.

Let every mortal ear attend

Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 481 hymnals Scripture: Luke 14:17 Lyrics: 1 Let every mortal ear attend, And every heart rejoice; The trumpet of the Gospel sounds With an inviting voice. Ho! all ye hungry, starving souls, Who feed upon the wind, And vainly strive with earthly toys To fill an empty mind,-- 2 Eternal wisdom has prepared A soul-reviving feast, And bids your longing appetites The rich provision taste. Ho! ye who pant for living streams, And pine away, and die; Here you may quench your raging thirst With springs that never dry. 3 Rivers of love and mercy here In a rich ocean join; Salvation in abundance flows, Like floods of milk and wine. The happy gates of Gospel grace Stand open night and day; Lord, we are come to seek supplies, And drive our wants away. Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises; Abundant Mercy

Broad is the road that leads to death

Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 463 hymnals Scripture: Luke 14:26-33 Lyrics: 1 Broad is the road that leads to death, And thousands walk together there; But wisdom shows a narrow path, With here and there a traveler. 2 Deny thyself, and take thy cross, Is the Redeemer's great command; Nature must count her gold but dross, If she would gain this heavenly land. 3 The fearful soul that tires and faints, And walks the way of God no more, Is but esteemed almost a saint, And makes his own destruction sure. 4 Lord! let not all my hopes be vain; Create my heart entirely new,-- Which hypocrites could ne'er attain; Which false apostates never knew.
