Rock of Ages, cleft for me
A Prophet-Woman Broke a Jar
Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: Glory to God #201 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Christian Year Palm Sunday; Christian Year Maundy Thursday; Christian Year Good Friday; Gift of the Holy Spirit; Jesus Christ Passion and Death; Women Lyrics: 1 A prophet-woman broke a jar,
by Love’s divine appointing.
With rare perfume she filled the room,
presiding and anointing.
A prophet-woman broke a jar,
the sneers of scorn defying.
With rare perfume she filled the room,
preparing Christ for dying.
2 A faithful woman left a tomb
by Love’s divine commission.
She saw; she heard; she preached the Word,
arising from submission.
A faithful woman left a tomb,
with resurrection gospel.
She saw; she heard; she preached the Word,
apostle to apostles.
3 Though woman-wisdom, woman-truth,
for centuries were hidden,
unsung, unwritten, and unheard,
derided and forbidden,
the Spirit’s breath, the Spirit’s fire,
on free and slave descending,
can tumble our dividing walls,
our shame and sadness mending.
4 The Spirit knows; the Spirit calls,
by Love’s divine ordaining,
the friends we need, to serve and lead,
their powers and gifts unchaining.
The Spirit knows; the Spirit calls,
from women, men, and children,
the friends we need, to serve and lead.
Rejoice, and make them welcome! Scripture: 1 Kings 17:8-16 Languages: English Tune Title: HOW CAN I KEEP FROM SINGING

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 death 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 a present far too small;
love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all. Scripture: Matthew 26:28 Languages: English Tune Title: HAMBURG

To Mock Your Reign, O Dearest Lord
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: The United Methodist Hymnal #285 (1989) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Christ's Gracious Life Passion and Death; Biblical Narrative; Christian Year Lent; Christian Year Holy Week; Jesus Christ; Kingdom of God; Mercy Lyrics: 1 To mock your reign, O dearest Lord,
they made a crown of thorns;
set you with taunts along that road
from which no one returns.
They could not know, as we do now,
how glorious is that crown;
that thorns would flower upon your brow,
your sorrows heal our own.
2 In mock acclaim, O gracious Lord,
they snatched a purple cloak;
your passion turned, for all they cared,
into a soldier's joke.
They could not know, as we do now,
that though we merit blame,
you will your robe of mercy throw
around our naked shame.
3 A sceptered reed, O patient Lord,
they thrust into your hand,
and acted out their grim charade
to its appointed end.
They could not know, as we do now,
though empires rise and fall,
your kingdom shall not cease to grow
till love embraces all. Scripture: Matthew 27:27-31 Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD

with grief and shame weighed down;
now scornfully surrounded
with thorns, thine only crown;
O sacred Head, what glory,
what bliss 'til now was thine!
Yet, though despised and gory,
I joy to call thee mine.
2 What thou, my Lord, hast suffered
was all for sinners' 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.
Scripture: Isaiah 53:3-7 Languages: English Tune Title: PASSION CHORALE

The Love that Clothes Itself in Light
Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #384 (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnate - Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday; God Love of Lyrics: 1 The Love that clothes itself in light
stands naked now, despised, betrayed,
receiving blows to face and head
from hands that Love itself has made.
2 The Love that lifts the stars and sun
collapses, spent, beneath the cross;
the Love that fills the universe,
goes on to death and total loss.
3 Love, helpless, comes to Calvary,
rejected, scorned and crucified;
Love hangs in shame, and dies alone,
but Love abased, is glorified.
4 Extinguished with the sun at noon,
Love's light transcends all history;
Love, wrapped in linen, Love entombed,
still wraps all heaven in mystery.
5 Though Love is lost, Love finds us here;
though Love is absent, Love remains;
where Love is finished, Love begins;
where Love is dead, Love lives and reigns! Scripture: Galatians 2:20 Languages: English Tune Title: APANÁS
