He Stood before the Court
Author: Christopher M. Idle, b. 1938 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: John 18:28-40, 19:1-26 Lyrics: 1 He stood before the court
on trial instead of us;
he met its pow'r to hurt,
condemned to face the cross -
our King, accused of treachery;
our God, abused for blasphemy!
2 These are the crimes that tell
the tale of human guilt;
our sins, our death, our hell -
on these the case is built.
To this world's pow'rs the Lord stays dumb.
The guilt is ours, no answers come.
3 The sentence must be passed,
the unknown pris'ner killed;
the price is paid at last,
the law of God fulfilled.
He takes our blame, and from that day
th'accuser's claim is wiped away.
4 Shall we be judged and tried?
In Christ our trial is done;
we live, for he has died,
our condemnation gone.
In Christ are we both dead and raised,
alive and free — his name be praised! Topics: Lent Used With Tune: MARLEE

As Royal Banners Are Unfurled
Author: Venantius Fortunatus (540?-600?); Alan Gaunt (1935-) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: John 18:33-37 Lyrics: 1 As royal banners are unfurled,
the cross displays its mystery:
the Maker of our flesh, in flesh,
impaled and hanging helplessly.
2 Already deeply wounded: see
his side now riven by a spear,
and all our sins are swept away
by blood and water flowing here.
3 See everything the prophets wrote
fulfilled in its totality,
and tell the nations of the world
our God is reigning from the tree.
4 This tree, ablaze with royal light
and with the blood-red robe it wears,
is hallowed and embellished by
the weight of holiness it bears.
5 Stretched like a balance here, his arms
have gauged the price of wickedness;
but, hanging here, his love outweighs
hell's unforgiving bitterness.
6 The Saviour, victim, sacrifice
is, through his dying glorified;
his life is overcome by death
and leaps up, sweeping death aside.
7 We hail the cross, faith's one true hope:
God's passion set in time and space,
by which our guilt is blotted out,
engulfed in such stupendous grace. Amen. Topics: Holy Week (Good Friday) Used With Tune: GONFALON ROYAL
