O Sacred Head, now Wounded

Author: Paul Gerhardt; J. W. Alexander; Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091-1153 Appears in 741 hymnals Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 O sacred Head, now wounded, With grief and shame weighed down, Now scornfully surrounded With thorns, Thine only crown; O sacred Head, what glory, What bliss, till now was Thine! Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine. 2 What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered Was all for sinner's gain; Mine, mine was the transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. Lo, here I fall, my Savior! ’Tis I deserve Thy place; Look on me with Thy favor, Vouchsafe to me Thy grace. 3 What language shall I borrow To thank Thee, dearest Friend, For this, Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end? O make me Thine forever; And should I fainting be, Lord, let me never, never Outlive my love to Thee. 4 Be near when I am dying, O show Thy cross to me; And for my succor flying, Come, Lord, and set me free. These eyes, new faith receiving, From Jesus shall not move, For He who dies believing, Dies safely through Thy love. Used With Tune: MIG HJERTELIG NU LÆNGES

Thy hand, O God, has guided

Author: Edward Plumptre, 1821-91 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 57 hymnals Topics: The Church Its Mission and Unity; Dedication Festival Lyrics: 1 Thy hand, O God, has guided Thy flock, from age to age; The wondrous tale is written, Full clear, on every page; Our fathers owned thy goodness, And we their deeds record; And both of this bear witness, One Church, one Faith, one Lord. 2 Thy heralds brought glad tidings To greatest, as to least; They bade men rise, and hasten To share the great King's feast; And this was all their teaching, In every deed and word, To all alike proclaiming One Church, one Faith, one Lord. 3 Through many a day of darkness, Through many a scene of strife, The faithful few fought bravely To guard the nation's life. Their gospel of redemption, Sin pardoned, man restored, Was all in this enfolded, One Church, one Faith, one Lord. 4 And we, shall we be faithless? Shall hearts fail, hands hang down? Shall we evade the conflict, And cast away our crown? Not so: in God's deep counsels Some better thing is stored; We will maintain, unflinching, One church, one Faith, one Lord. 5 Thy mercy will not fail us, Nor leave thy work undone; With thy right hand to help us, The victory shall be won; And then, by men and angels, Thy name shall be adored, And this shall be their anthem, One Church, one Faith, one Lord.
