Jesus, I Will Ponder Now
Author: August Crull, 1846-1923; Sigismund von Birken, 1626-1681 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #115 (1978) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Holy Week; Holy Week Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I will ponder now
On your holy Passion;
Let your Spirit now endow
Me for meditation.
Grant that I in love and faith
May the image cherish
Of your suff'ring, pain, and death,
That I may not perish.
2 Make me see Your great distress,
Anguish, and affliction,
Bonds and stripes and wretchedness
And your crucifixion;
Make me see how scourge and rod,
Spear and nails, did wound you,
How you died for those, O God,
Who with thorns had crowned you.
3 Yet, O Lord, not thus alone
Make me see your Passion,
But its cause to me make known
And its termination.
For I also and my sin
Wrought your deep affliction;
This the shameful cause has been
Of your crucifixion.
4 Let me view your pain and loss
With repentant grieving,
Nor prepare again your cross
By unholy living.
May I give you love for love!
Hear me, O my Savior,
That I may in heav'n above
Sing your praise forever.

Sing, My Tongue
Author: John M. Neale, 1818-1866; Venantius Honorius Fortunatus, 530-609 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #118 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Holy Week; Holy Week First Line: Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle;
Sing the ending of the fray.
Now above the cross, the trophy,
Sound the loud triumphant lay:
Tell how Christ, the world's redeemer,
As a victim won the day.
2 Tell how, when at length the fullness
Of the appointed time was come,
He, the Word, was born of woman,
Left for us his Father's home,
Blazed the path of true obedience,
Shone as light amidst the gloom.
3 Thus, with thirty years accomplished,
He went forth from Nazareth,
Destined, dedicated, willing,
Did his work, and met his death;
Like a lamb he humbly yielded
On the cross his dying breath.
4 Faithful cross, true sign of triumph,
Be for all the noblest tree;
None in foliage, none in blossom,
None in fruit your equal be;
Symbol of the world's redemption,
For your burden makes us free.
5 Unto God be praise and glory:
To the Father and the Son,
To the eternal Spirit honor
Now and evermore be done;
Praise and glory in the highest,
While the timeless ages run. Languages: English Tune Title: FORTUNATUS NEW

Of the Glorious Body Telling
Author: Thomas Aquinas, 1227-1274 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #120 (1978) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Holy Week; Holy Week First Line: Of the glorius body telling Lyrics: 1 Of the glorious body telling,
O my tongue, its myst'ries sing,
And the blood, all price excelling,
Which the world’s eternal King,
In a noble womb once dwelling,
Shed for this world’s ransoming.
2 Giv'n for us, for us descending,
Of a virgin to proceed,
With us all in converse blending,
Scattered he the Gospel seed,
Till his sojourn drew to ending
Which he closed in wondrous deed.
3 At the last great supper lying
Circled by his chosen band,
Meekly with the law complying,
First he finished its command;
Then, immortal food supplying,
Gave himself with his own hand.
4 Word made flesh, by word ordaining
Very bread his flesh to be;
We, in wine Christ’s blood obtaining,
And, if senses fail to see,
Faith alone will wake those straining
To behold the mystery. Amen
5 Therefore we, before him bending,
This great sacrament revere:
Types and shadows have their ending,
For the newer rite is here;
Faith, our outward sense befriending,
Makes the inward vision clear.
6 Glory let us give, and blessing
To the Father and the Son;
Honor, might, and praise addressing,
While eternal ages run;
Ever, too, the Spirit blessing,
Who, from both, with both is one.
Amen Languages: English Tune Title: PANGE LINGUA

An Upper Room Did Our Lord Prepare
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: Voices United #130 (1996) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Topics: The Christian Year Holy Week; Christian Year Holy Week 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.

Bitter Was the Night
Author: Sydney Carter Hymnal: Voices United #132 (1996) Meter: 5.8.5.6 Topics: The Christian Year Holy Week; Christian Year Holy Week Lyrics: 1 Bitter was the night,
thought the cock would crow for ever.
Bitter was the night
before the break of day.
2 Saw you passing by,
told them all I didn't know you.
Bitter was the night
before the break of day.
3 Told them all a lie,
and I told it three times over.
Bitter was the night
before the break of day.
4 What did Judas do?
Sold him for a bag of silver.
Bitter was the night
before the break of day.
5 What did Judas do?
Hanged himself upon an alder.
Bitter was the night
before the break of day.
6 Bitter was the night,
thought there'd never be a morning.
Bitter was the night
before the break of day.
7 Bitter was the night,
thought the cock would crow for ever.
Bitter was the night
before the break of day. Languages: English Tune Title: BITTER WAS THE NIGHT
