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 a present far too small: love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all. 1 Quand je me tourne vers le croix où Christ expire su le bois mon coeur blessé rempli du deuil, prend en dégoût mon fol orgueil. 2 Qui donc pourrait calmer ce coeur hormis la crois de mon Sauveur? Tous mes plaisirs, mes vains désirs, je veux, ô Christ, te les offrir. 3 Oh vois, des mains, de son côté, du front d'épines couronné, douleur, angoisse, amour mêlés, descendre pour nous racheter. 4 Si je t'offrais le monde entier ce don serait pris es pitié. Amour si grand, si pur, si doux veut âme, corps, mon coeur, mon tout! Used With Tune: COMMUNION (ROCKINGHAM)

Christ Jesus, it is he; Lord Sabaoth his name, from age to age the same, and he must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God hath willed the truth to triumph through us: the prince of darkness grim, we tremble not for him; his rage we can endure, for lo! his doom is sure, one little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abideth; the Spirit and the gifts are ours through Christ, who with us sideth: let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also; the body they may kill: God's truth abideth still, God's kingdom is forever.
