Beneath the Cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane Hymnal: Concordia #126 (1918) Topics: Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand, The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land; A home within the wilderness, A rest upon the way, From the burning of the noontide heat, And the burden of the day. 2 Upon the cross of Jesus, Mine eye at times can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me. And from my smitten heart with tears, These wonders I confess, - The wonder of His glorious love, And my own worthlessness. 3 I take, O cross, thy shadow For my abiding-place; I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of His face; Content to let the world go by, To know no gain or loss, My sinful self my only shame, My glory all the cross.

I Lay my Sins on Jesus

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Concordia #127 (1918) Topics: Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 I lay my sins on Jesus, The spotless Lamb of God; He bears them all, and frees us From the accursed load. I bring my guilt to Jesus, To wash my crimson stains White in His blood most precious, Till not a spot remains. 2 I lay my wants on Jesus; All fullness dwells in Him: He heals all my diseases, He doth my soul redeem. I lay my griefs on Jesus, My burdens and my cares: He from them all releases, He all my sorrows shares. 3 I long to be like Jesus, Meek, loving, lowly, mild: I long to be like Jesus, The Father's holy Child. I long to be with Jesus, Amid the heav'nly throng, To sing with saints His praises, To learn the angels' song. Languages: English Tune Title: CRUCIFIX

My Hope is Built

Author: E. Mohr Hymnal: Concordia #131 (1918) Topics: Passion and Easter First Line: My hope is built on nothing less Refrain First Line: On Christ the solid rock I stand Lyrics: 1 My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus' blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus' name: On Christ, the solid rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand. 2 When darkness seems to veil His face, I rest on His unchanging grace; In ev'ry high and stormy gale, My anchor holds within the veil; On Christ, the solid rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand. 3 His oath, His covenant, and blood, Support me in the whelming flood: When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay: On Christ, the solid rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand.

According to Thy Gracious Word

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Concordia #58 (1918) Topics: Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 According to Thy gracious word, In meek humility, This will I do, my dying Lord, I will remember Thee. 2 Thy body, broken for my sake, My bread from heaven shall be; Thy testamental cup I take, And thus remember Thee. 3 Gethsemane can I forget, Or there Thy conflict see, Thine agony and bloody sweat, And not remember Thee? 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes, And rest on Calvary, O Lamb of God, my sacrifice, I must remember Thee. 5 Remember Thee, and all Thy pains, And all Thy love to me; Yes, while a breath, a pulse remains, Will I remember Thee. 6 And when these failing lips grow dumb, And mind and memory flee, When Thou shalt in Thy kingdom come, Jesus, remember me.

Alas! and Did my Savior Bleed?

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Concordia #76 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter First Line: Alas! and did my Savior bleed Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Savior bleed, And did my Sov'reign die, Would He devote that sacred head For sinners such as I? 2 Was it for crimes that I had done He groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity, grace unknown, And love beyond degree. 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut His glories in, When God, the mighty Maker, died For man, the creature's sin. 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face While His dear cross appears, Dissolve my heart in thankfulness, And melt my eyes to tears. 5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay The debt of love I owe; Here, Lord, I give myself away, 'Tis all that I can do.

Sweet the Moments, Rich in Blessing

Author: W. Shirley Hymnal: Concordia #77 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing, Which before the cross we spend; Life, and health, and peace possessing, From the sinner's dying Friend. 2 Truly blessed is this station, Low before His cross to lie, While we see divine compassion Beaming in His gracious eye. 3 For Thy sorrows we adore Thee, For the griefs that wrought our peace; Gracious Savior! we implore Thee, In our souls Thy love increase! 4 Here we feel our sins forgiven, While upon the Lamb we gaze; And our thoughts are all of heaven, And our lips o'erflow with praise. 5 Lord, in loving contemplation, Fix our hearts and eyes on Thee, Till we taste Thy full salvation, And Thine unveiled glory see.

And unto her: "Behold thy son!" 5 O Jesus, should I suffer loss And stand forsaken with my cross, Yea, even scorn'd by man I be, Send friends of Thine to comfort me. 6 The robber who his sins confessed Found comfort in his Savior blest, Who took the sting of death away And opened Paradise for aye. 7 Oh, let me, too, when death is near, From Thine own lips with gladness hear The blessed words: "Come thou to be Today in Paradise with me." 8 He then the words in anguish spoke, At which the earth and heaven shook; "My God," He cried in agony, "Why hast Thou thus forsaken me?" 9 God's wrath Thou borest on the cross, For me Thou borest grief and loss, For me Thou didst in anguish cry And die that I should never die. 10 "I thirst," He said; O evil thought, A sop of vinegar they brought! O Jesus, through its bitterness Thou drank'st the cup of my distress. 11 "'Tis finished!" said our dying Lord; O blessed comfort, glorious word! My sin and shame on Him were laid, And all my debts forever paid. 12 His final word, this blessed cry, Was full of hope from heaven high; He cried: "My Father, I commend My spirit in Thy loving hand." 13 Oh, how this word sweet hope instills And heart and soul with comfort fills! Oh, may that also be the word Which at my death I speak, O Lord! Languages: English Tune Title: [Oh, come and stand beneath the cross]
