Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: Church Book #171 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Suffering Son of man, be near me,
In my sufferings to sustain;
By Thy sorer griefs to cheer me,
By Thy more than mortal pain.
2 Call to mind that unknown anguish,
In Thy days of flesh below,
When Thy troubled soul did languish
Under a whole world of woe.
3 By Thy most severe temptation
In that dark Satanic hour;
By thy last mysterious Passion,
Screen me from the adverse power. Topics: Passion Week; Passion Week Languages: English Tune Title: GETHSEMANE
