Go to dark Gethsemane

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #120 (1870) Topics: Following Christ Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the tempter's power Your Redeemer's conflict see, Watch with Him one bitter hour; Turn not from His griefs away, Learn of Jesus Christ to pray. 2 Follow to the judgment hall, View the Lord of life arraign'd; Oh, the wormwood and the gall! Oh, the pangs His soul sustain'd! Shun not suff'ring, shame, or loss; Learn of Him to bear the cross. 3 Calv'ry's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at His feet, Mark that miracle of time, God's own sacrifice complete: "It is finished!" hear Him cry; Learn of Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb Where they laid His breathless clay-- All is solitude and gloom-- Who hath taken Him away? Christ is risen; He meets our eyes! Saviour, teach us so to rise. Languages: English
