There is a dear and hallow'd spot

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #238 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Passion of Christ Lyrics: 1 There is a dear and hallow'd spot Oft present to my eye; By saints it ne'er can be forgot; That place is Calvary. 2 Oh, what a scene was there display'd Of love and agony, When our Redeemer bow'd His head, And died on Calvary! 3 When fainting under guilt's dread load, Unto the cross I'll fly; And trust the merit of that blood Which flow'd at Calvary. 4 Whene'er I feel temptation's power, On Jesus I'll rely; And, in the sharp, conflicting hour, Repair to Calvary. 5 When seated at the feast of love, Then will I fix mine eye On Him who intercedes above, Who bled on Calvary. 6 When the dark scene of death, the last Momentous hour draws nigh, Then, with my dying eyes, I'll cast A look on Calvary.

O Love, How Deep

Author: T. á Kempis, 1380-1471; B. Webb, 1819-85 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #281 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Passion of Christ First Line: O love, how deep, how high, how broad Lyrics: 1 O love, how deep, how broad, how high, How passing thought the love of God, That Christ, the Son of God, should take Our mortal form for mortals' sake! 2 He sent no angel to our race, Of higher or of lower place, But wore the robe of human frame, And to this world Himself He came. 3 For us baptized, for us He bore His holy fast, and hungered sore; For us temptations sharp He knew; For us the tempter overthrew. 4 For us He prayed, for us He taught; For us His daily works He wrought; By words and signs and actions thus Still seeking not Himself, but us. 5 For us to wicked men betrayed, Scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed, He bore the shameful cross and death, For us gave up His dying breath. 6 For us He rose from death again; For us He went on high to reign; For us He sent His Spirit here To guide, to strengthen, and to cheer. 7 All glory to our Lord and God For love so deep, so high, so broad; The Trinity whom we adore Forever and forevermore.

Beneath the Cross of Jesus Kneeling

Author: H. Petursson, 1614-74 ; C. V. Pilcher, 1879-1960 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #288 (1996) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Topics: Passion of Christ Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus kneeling Dawns on my soul the endless day; There, deeper than all tides of feeling, Doth God His boundless grace display; Thence flow the mystic heaing waves; There all my stains the Savior laves. 2 God wrought for man, His love forth-showing, When Moses smote the rock of old; And, lo, through Israel's camp on-flowing, Broke forth the longed-for flood, and rolled, New strength, new joy, new life bestowed, On lips that quaffed it, pure and cold. 3 God wrought for man, mankind redeeming, When Christ was pierc'd by Roman spear, And, o'er the thirsty world down-streaming, Forth gushed a fountain, cool and clear, Till souls, those blessed waters near, Forgot in joy sin's desert drear. 4 Beside that well for aye abiding, New strength, new joy, new life I gain; Within that cleft securely hiding, No care can harm, no sorrow stain; Here rests the blissful soul serene, Here faith the healing draft can glean. 5 Lord, let my heart, this gift receiving, Sing one glad anthem to Thy praise; And may the stream, Thy pierc'd heart leaving, Refresh and heal me all my days: Thus by Thy blood my life restored, Eternal thans to Thee, O Lord.

Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary #289 (1996) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Passion of Christ Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names Of wisdom, love, and pow'r, That ever mortals knew, That angels ever bore: All are too mean to speak His worth, Too frail to set my Savior forth! 2 Great Prophet of my God, My tongue would bless Thy name; By Thee the joyful news Of our salvation came: The joyful news of sins forgiv'n, Of hell subdued, and peace with heav'n. 3 Be thou my Counselor, My Pattern and my Guide; And through this desert land Still keep me by Thy side. O let my feet ne'er run astray, Nor rove, nor seek the crooked way. 4 I love my Shepherd's voice, His watchful eyes shall keep My wand'ring soul among The thousands of His sheep: He feeds His flock, He calls their names, His bosom bears the tender lambs. 5 Jesus, my great High Priest, Offered his blood, and died; My guilty conscience seeks No sacrifice beside: His powerful blood did once atone, And now it pleads before the throne. 6 My Advocate appears For my defense on high, The Father bows His ear, And lays His anger by. Not all that hell or sin can say Shall turn His heart, His love away. 7 Should all the hosts of death, And pow'rs of hell unknown Put their most dreadful forms Of rage and mischief on; I shall be safe, for Christ displays Superior pow'r and guardian grace.
