Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle

Author: Venantius Fortunatus, 530-600; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #144 (2010) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Passion and Holy Week Lyrics: PART ONE: 1 Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle, sing the last, the dread affray; o'er the cross, the Victor's trophy, sound the high triumphal lay, how, the pains of death enduring, earth's Redeemer won the day. 2 When at length the appointed fullness of the sacred time was come, he was sent, the world's Creator, from the Father's heavenly home, and was found in human fashion offspring of the Virgin's womb. 3 Now the thirty years are ended which on earth he willed to see, willingly he meets his passion, born to set his people free; on the cross the Lamb is lifted, there the sacrifice to be. 4 There the nails and spear he suffers, vinegar and gall and reed; from his sacred body piercèd blood and water both proceed: precious flood, which all creation from the stain of sin hath freed. PART TWO: 5 Faithful cross, above all other, one and only noble tree, none in foliage, none in blossom, none in fruit thy peer may be; sweet the wood, and sweet the iron, and thy load, most sweet is he. 6 Bend, O lofty tree, thy branches, thy too rigid sinews bend; and awhile the stubborn hardness, which thy birth bestowed, suspend; and the limbs of heaven's high Monarch gently on thine arms extend. 7 Thou alone wast counted worthy this world's ransom to sustain, that a shipwrecked race for ever might a port of refuge gain, with the sacred blood anointed of the Lamb for sinners slain. DOXOLOGY: Praise and honour to the Father, praise and honour to the Son, praise and honour to the Spirit, ever Three and ever One: One in might, and One in glory while eternal ages run.

The royal banners forward go

Author: Venantius Fortunatus, 530-600; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #145 (2010) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Passion and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 The royal banners forward go, the cross shines forth in mystic glow; where he in flesh, our flesh who made, our sentence bore, our ransom paid. 2 There whilst he hung, his sacred side by soldier's spear was opened wide, to cleanse us in the precious flood of water mingled with his blood. 3 Fulfilled is now what David told in true prophetic song of old, how God the heathen's King should be; for God is reigning from the tree. 4 O tree of glory, tree most fair, ordained those holy limbs to bear, how bright in purple robe it stood, the purple of a Saviour's blood! 5 Upon its arms, like balance true, he weighed the price for sinners due, the price which none but he could pay, and spoiled the spoiler of his prey. 6 To thee, eternal Three in One, let homage meet by all be done: as by the cross thou dost restore, so rule and guide us evermore.

Thy life was given for me

Author: Frances Ridley Havergal, 1836-1879 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #146 (2010) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Passion and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 Thy life was given for me, thy blood, O Lord, was shed, that I might ransomed be, and quickened from the dead; thy life was given for me; what have I given for thee? 2 Long years were spent for me in weariness and woe, that through eternity thy glory I might know; long years were spent for me; have I spent one for thee? 3 Thy Father's home of light, thy rainbow-circled throne, were left for earthly night, for wanderings sad and lone; yea, all was left me; have I left aught for thee? 4 Thou, Lord, hast borne for me more than my tongue can tell of bitterest agony, to rescue me from hell; thou sufferedst all for me; what have I borne for thee? 5 And thou hast brought to me down from thy home above salvation full and free, thy pardon and thy love; great gifts thou broughtest me; what have I brought to thee? 6 O let my life be given my years for thee be spent; world-fetters all be riven, and joy with suff'ring blent: thou gavest thyself for me, I give myself to thee.

When I survey the wondrous cross

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #147 (2010) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Passion and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross on which the Prince of Glory died, my richest gain I count but loss, and pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast save in the cross of Christ my God; all the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood. 3 See from his head, his hands, his feet, sorrow and love flow mingled down; did e'er such love and sorrow meet, or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, that were an offering far too small; love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all.
