In His Own Raiment Clad

Author: Edward Monro Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2983 Meter: 10.9.10.9 First Line: In His own raiment clad, with His blood dyed Lyrics: 1. In His own raiment clad, with His blood dyed; Women walk sorrowing by His side. Heavy that cross to Him, weary the weight; One who will help Him waits at the gate. 2. See! they are traveling on the same road; Simon is sharing with Him the load. O whither wandering bear they that tree? He who first carries it, who is He? 3. Follow to Calvary; tread where He trod, He who for ever was Son of God. You who would love Him stand, gaze at His face: Tarry a while on your earthy race. 4. As the swift moments fly, through the blest week, Read the great story the cross will teach. Is there no beauty to you who pass by, In that lone figure which marks that sky? 5. On the cross lifted Thy face we scan, Bearing that cross for us, Son of Man. Thorns form Thy diadem, rough wood Thy throne; For us Thy blood is shed, us alone. 6. No pillow under Thee to rest Thy head; Only the splintered cross is Thy bed. Nails pierced Thy hands and feet, Thy side the spear; No voice is nigh to say help is near. 7. Shadows of midnight fall, though it is day: Thy friends and kinsfolk stand far away. Loud is Thy bitter cry; sunk on Thy breast Hangeth Thy bleeding head without rest. 8. Loud scoffs the dying thief, who mocks at Thee; Can it, my Savior, be all for me? Gazing, afar from Thee, silent and lone, Stand those few weepers Thou callest Thine own. 9. I see Thy title, Lord, inscribed above; Jesus of Nazareth, King of Love. What, O my Savior, here didst Thou see, Which made Thee suffer and die for me? 10. “Child of My grief and pain, watched by My love; I came to call thee to realms above. I saw thee wandering far off from Me: In love I seek for Thee; do not flee. 11. For thee My blood I shed, for thee alone; I came to purchase thee, for Mine own. Weep thou not for My grief, child of My love: Strive to be with Me in Heaven above. 12. O I will follow Thee, Star of my soul, Through the deep shades of life to the goal. Yea, let Thy cross be borne each day by me; Mind not how heavy, if but with Thee. 13. Lord, if Thou only wilt, make us Thine own, Give no companion, save Thee alone. Grant through each day of life to stand by Thee; With Thee, when morning breaks, ever to be. Languages: English Tune Title: STORY OF THE CROSS

See Him in Raiment Rent

Author: Edward Monro; Mrs. M. Dearmer Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5982 Meter: 10.9.10.9 Lyrics: 1. See Him in raiment rent, With His blood dyed: Women walk sorrowing, By His side. 2. Heavy that cross to Him, Weary the weight: One who will help Him stands At the gate. 3. Multitudes hurrying Pass on the road: Simon is sharing with Him the load. 4. Who is this traveling With the curst tree— This weary prisoner— Who is He? 5. Follow to Calvary, Tread where He trod: This is the Lord of life— Son of God. 6. Is there no loveliness— You who pass by— In that lone figure which Marks the sky? 7. You who would love Him, stand, Gaze at His face; Tarry awhile in your Worldly race. 8. As the swift moments fly Through the blest week, Jesus, in penitence, Let us seek. 9. On the cross lifted up, Thy face I scan, Scarred by that agony— Son of Man. 10. Thorns form Thy diadem, Rough wood Thy throne, To Thee Thy outstretched arms Draw Thine own. 11. Nails hold Thy hands and feet, While on Thy breast Sinketh Thy bleeding head Sore oppressed. 12. Loud is Thy bitter cry, Rending the night, As to Thy darkened eyes Fails the light. 13. Shadows of midnight fall, Though it is day; Friends and disciples stand Far away. 14. Loud scoffs the dying thief, Mocking Thy woe; Can this my Savior be Brought so low? 15. Yes, see the title clear, Written above, Jesus of Nazareth, Name of love! 16. What, O my Savior dear, What didst Thou see, That made Thee suffer and Die for me? 17. Child of My grief and pain! From realms above, I came to lead thee to Life and love. 18. For thee My blood I shed, For thee I died; Safe in thy faithfulness Now abide. 19. I saw thee wandering, Weak and at strife; I am the way for thee, Truth and life. 20. Follow My path of pain, Tread where I trod: This is the way of peace Up to God. 21. O I will follow Thee, Star of my soul! Through the great dark I press To the goal. 22. Yes, let me know Thy grief, Carry Thy cross, Share in Thy sacrifice, Gain Thy loss. 23. Daily I’ll prove my love, Through joy and woe; Where Thy hands point the way, There I go. 24. Lead me on year by year, Safe to the end, Jesus, my Lord, my life, King and friend. Languages: English Tune Title: BRIDGWATER

Här mången suckar

Hymnal: Lutherförbundets Sångbok #S145 (1913) Meter: 10.9.10.9 First Line: Här mången suckar med ängsligt hjärta Lyrics: 1 Här mången suckar med ängsligt hjärta Och undrar, hur han skall målet nå. Se mer på Jesus, se mer på Jesus, Det gifver mod till att skynda på. 2 När världen söker att dig förvilla Och dra dig bort, från din Herre kär, Se mer på Jesus, se mer på Jesus, Han hjälper den, som är frestad här. 3 Du klagar ofta, att du på vägen Ej alltid vandrar, men viker af, Se mer på Jesus, se mer på Jesus, Han lofvat vara din käpp och staf. 4 Du äfven klagar, att vänner svika, Du vet ej någon, som dig förstår. Se mer på Jesus, se mer på Jesus, På denne vän du förtrösta får. 5 Och om ej brödet dig ymnigt gifves Men delas knappt för hvar enda dag, Se mer på Jesus, se mer på Jesus, Han ägde mindre än du och jag. 6 Och kommer döden och dig förskräker, Den sista kampen är dock så kort. Se blott på Jesus, se blott på Jesus, Och dödens fasor han tager bort. 7 Hvad än dig möter i jordelifvet Af lust och glädje, af sorg och nöd, Se mer på Jesus, se mer på Jesus, Han vill dig hjälpa i lif och död.

W. B. Stevens

b. 1862 Meter: 10.9.10.9 Author of "Farther Along" in Songs of Faith and Praise William Buel Stevens was born in 1862 in the Lawnridge community of Scotland County Missouri. His father, Buel Stevens was arrested along with a group of 80 “German Methodist," charged with mutiny in 1862. Buel was one of three soldiers made examples of and sent to the federal prison in Alton, IL; but all three were returned to service after appeals after 6 months in prison. William's uncle died suddenly of heart disease at 48 and his 17 year old son died the same way a couple of years later. This would have happened in Stevens’ late teens. William Buel Stevens and his wife became sanctified and joined the Church of God Holiness. They spent a few years as traveling tent evangelists. They established two church communities. One in Queen City Missouri and 1 in Moulton Iowa. He was a minister of the gospel until death, dying a year after his wife in the early 1940s. All of their babies died before them, some as small children, one Waldo at 19, and a daughter who may have lived a little longer. This may have shaped the feelings expressed in this song.
