"Man of Sorrows"

Author: George S. Dwight Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Christ Crucifixion of; Christ Crucifixion of First Line: O Jesus, "Man of Sorrows" Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, "Man of Sorrows," Sole Son of God, the King! What language shall I borrow Thy boundless love to sing? No mortal words can measure The burdens thou didst take, Accepting pain as pleasure, All for my sinful sake. 2 By thine own kin neglected By trusted ones denied By bitter foes rejected, Thorn-crowned, and crucified Earth's hatred and affliction In patience thou didst bear, Returning benediction For cross and nail and spear. 3 Had ever love such proving! Was ever love so priced! Ah, what is all my loving Compared with thine, O Christ! 'Tis scarcely worth the gaining This paltry heart of mine; And yet for its obtaining Thou paid'st a price divine.

Behold th' amazing sight

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 114 hymnals Topics: Crucifixion of Christ Lyrics: 1 Behold th'amazing sight, The Saviour lifted high! Behold the Son of God's delight Expire in agony? 2 For whom, for whom, my heart, Were all these sorrows borne! Why did He feel that piercing smart, And meet that various scorn? 3 For love of us He bled, And all in torture died; 'Twas love that bow'd His fainting head, And oped His gushing side. 4 In sympathy of love Let all the earth combine; And, drawn by cords so gentle, prove The energy divine. 5 In Him our hearts unite, Nor share His griefs alone, But from His cross pursue their flight To His triumphant throne.
