Saviour! when in dust to Thee

Author: R. Grant Hymnal: CHRC1920 #91 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Saviour! when in dust to Thee Low we bow th' adoring knee, When, repentant, to the skies Scarce we lift our weeping eyes, O by all Thy pains and woe Suffered once for man below; Bending from Thy throne on high Hear our solemn litany. 2 By Thy helpless infant years, By Thy life of want and tears, By Thy days of sore distress In the savage wilderness, By the dread permitted hour Of the mighty tempter's power: Turn, O turn a favouring eye, Hear our solemn litany! 3 By the sacred grief that wept O'er the grave where Lazarus slept; By the boding tears that flowed Over Salem's loved abode; By the anguished sigh that told Treachery lurked within Thy fold; From Thy seat above the sky, Hear our solemn litany! 4 By the burthen Thou didst bear, By Thine agony of prayer, By the Cross, the nail, the thorn, Piercing spear, and torturing scorn; By the gloom that veiled the skies O'er the dreadful Sacrifice; Listen to our humble cry, Hear our solemn litany! 5 By Thy deep expiring groan; By the sealed sepulchral stone; By the vault, whose dark abode Held in vain the rising God: O from earth to heaven restored, Mighty, re-ascended Lord, Listen, listen to the cry Of our solemn litany!

Lord, in this Thy mercy's day

Author: I. Williams Hymnal: CHRC1920 #92 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Lord, in this Thy mercy's day, Ere the time shall pass away, On our knees we fall and pray. 2 Holy Jesus, grant us tears, Fill us with heart-searching fears, Ere that day of doom appears. 3 Lord, on us Thy Spirit pour, Kneeling lowly at Thy door, Ere it close for evermore. 4 By Thy night of agony, By Thy supplicating cry, By Thy willingness to die, 5 By Thy tears of bitter woe For Jerusalem below, Let us not Thy love forego. 6 Judge and Saviour of our race, Grant us, when we see Thy face, With Thy ransomed ones a place 7 On Thy love we rest alone, And that love shall then be known By the pardon'd, round Thy throne.

Ride on! ride on in majesty!

Author: H. H. Milman Hymnal: CHRC1920 #94 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Ride on! ride on in majesty! Hark! all the tribes Hosanna cry; O Saviour meek, pursue Thy road With palms and scatter'd garments strow'd. 2 Ride on! ride on in majesty! In lowly pomp ride on to die: O Christ, Thy triumphs now begin O'er captive death and conquered sin. 3 Ride on! ride on in majesty! The angel armies of the sky Look down with sad and wondering eyes To see the approaching sacrifice. 4 Ride on! ride on in majesty! Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh; The Father on His sapphire throne Expects His own anointed Son. 5 Ride on! ride on in majesty! In lowly pomp ride on to die; Bow Thy meek head to mortal pain, Then take, O God, Thy power, and reign. Topics: Lent Holy Week Languages: English Tune Title: ST. DROSTANE

His are the thousand sparkling rills

Author: C. F. Alexander Hymnal: CHRC1920 #95 (1920) Lyrics: 1 His are the thousand sparkling rills That from a thousand fountains burst; And fill with music all the hills: And yet He saith "I thirst." 2 All fiery pangs on battlefields, On fever beds where sick men toss, Are in that human cry He yields To anguish on the cross. 3 But more than pains that racked Him then Was the deep longing thirst divine That thirsted for the souls of men: Dear Lord! and one was mine. 4 O Love most patient, give me grace; Make all my soul athirst for Thee; That parched dry lip, that fading face, That thirst, were all for me.

Go to dark Gethsemane

Author: J. Montgomery Hymnal: CHRC1920 #96 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the tempter's pow'r; 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 arraigned; O the wormwood and the gall! O the pangs His soul sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; Learn of Him to bear the cross. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at His feet, Mark the miracle of time, God's own sacrifice complete; "It is finished!" hear Him cry; Learn of Jesus Christ to die.

The royal banners forward go

Author: V. Fortunatus; J. M. Neale Hymnal: CHRC1920 #97 (1920) Lyrics: 1 The royal banners forward go, The Cross shines forth in mystic glow; Where He in flesh, our flesh Who made, Our sentence bore, our ransom paid. 2 There whilst He hung, His sacred side By soldier's spear was opened wide, To cleanse us in the precious flood Of water mingled with His blood. 3 Fulfilled is now what David told In true prophetic song of old, How God the heathen's King should be; For God is reigning from the Tree. 4 O Tree of glory, Tree most fair, Ordained those holy limbs to bear, How bright in purpose robe it stood, The purple of a Saviour's blood! 5 Upon its arms, like balance true, He weighed the price for sinners due, The price which none but He could pay, And spoiled the spoiler of his prey. 6 To Thee, eternal Three in One, Let homage meet by all be done: As by the Cross Thou dost restore, So rule and guide us evermore.

Ah, holy Jesus, how hast Thou offended

Author: R. Bridges; J. Heermann Hymnal: CHRC1920 #98 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Ah, holy Jesus, how hast Thou offended, That man to judge Thee hath in hate pretended? By foes derided, by Thine own rejected, O most afflicted. 2 Who was the guilty! Who brought this upon Thee? Alas, my treason, Jesus, hath undone Thee. 'Twas I, Lord Jesus, I it was denied Thee: I crucified Thee. 3 Lo, the good Shepherd for the sheep is offered; The slave hath sinned, and the Son hath suffered; For man's atonement, while he nothing heedeth, God intercedeth. 4 For me, kind Jesus, was Thy incarnation, Thy mortal sorrow, and Thy life's oblation; Thy death of anguish and Thy bitter passion, For my salvation. 5 Therefore, kind Jesus, since I cannot pay Thee, I do adore Thee, and will ever pray Thee, Think on Thy pity and Thy love unswerving, Not my deserving.

Behold the Lamb of God!

Author: M. Bridges Hymnal: CHRC1920 #99 (1920) Lyrics: 1 Behold the Lamb of God! O Thou for sinners slain, Let it not be in vain That Thou hast died: Thee for my Saviour let me take, My only refuge let me make Thy pierced side. 2 Behold the Lamb of God! Into the sacred flood Of Thy most precious blood My soul I cast: Wash me and make me clean within, And keep me pure from every sin, Till life be past. 3 Behold the Lamb of God! All hail, incarnate Word, Thou everlasting Lord, Saviour most blest; Fill us with love that never faints, Grant us with all Thy blessed saints, Eternal rest. 4 Behold the Lamb of God! Worthy is He alone, That sitteth on the throne Of God above; One with the Ancient of all days, One with the Comforter in praise, All light and love.

See the destined day arise!

Author: R. Mant; V. Fortunatus Hymnal: CHRC1920 #100 (1920) Lyrics: 1 See the destined day arise! See a willing sacrifice! Jesus, to redeem our loss, Hangs upon the shameful Cross. 2 Jesus, who but Thou had borne, Lifted on that Tree of scorn, Every pang and bitter throe, Finishing Thy life of woe? 3 Who but Thou had dared to drain Steeped in gall the cup of pain, And with tender body bear Thorns, and nails, piercing spear? 4 Thence the cleansing water flowed, Mingled from Thy Side with blood; Sign to all attesting eyes Of the finished Sacrifice. 5 Holy Jesus, grant us peace In that Sacrifice to place All our trust for life renewed, Pardoned sin, and promised good.
