Go to dark Gethsemane

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 506 hymnals Topics: Discipleship and Service Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, you that feel the tempter's power; your Redeemer's conflict see, watch with him one bitter hour; turn not from his griefs away: learn from him to watch and pray. 2 See him at the judgment hall, beaten, bound, reviled, arraigned; see him meekly bearing all; love to all his soul sustained. Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; learn from Christ to bear the cross. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain view; there the Lord of glory see, made a sacrifice for you, dying on the accursed tree. "It is finished," hear him cry: trust in Christ and learn to die. Used With Tune: REDHEAD No. 76
