Beneath the Cross of Jesus
Author: Elizabeth Cecilia Douglas Clephane Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 547 hymnals Topics: Christian Year Palm Sunday; Christian Year Maundy Thursday; Christian Year Good Friday; Commitment; Jesus Christ Passion and Death; Living in Christ; Rédemption Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus
I fain would take my stand,
the shadow of a mighty rock
within a weary land;
a home within the wilderness,
a rest upon the way,
from the burning of the noontide heat,
and the burden of the day.
2 Upon the cross of Jesus
mine eye at times can see
the very dying form of One
who suffered there for me;
and from my stricken heart with tears
two wonders I confess:
the wonders of redeeming love
and my unworthiness.
3 I take, O cross, thy shadow
for my abiding place;
I ask no other sunshine than
the sunshine of his face;
content to let the world go by,
to know no gain or loss,
my sinful self my only shame,
my glory all the cross. Scripture: Isaiah 4:6 Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER

every tongue confess him King of glory now;

2 Humbled for a season, to receive a name
from the lips of sinners unto whom he came,
faithfully He bore it, spotless to the last,
brought it back victorious when from death he passed.
3 Bore it up triumphant with its human light,
through all ranks of creatures to the central height,
to the throne of Godhead, to the Father’s breast;
filled it with the glory of that perfect rest.
4 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue
all that is not holy, all that is not true.
Crown him as your captain in temptation's hour;
let his will enfold you in its light and power. Scripture: Philippians 2:5-11 Used With Tune: KING'S WESTON

Spirit of God, Descend upon My Heart
Author: George Croly Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 347 hymnals Topics: Sanctifiying and Perfecting Grace Prayer, Trust, Hope; Aspiration and Resolve; Christian Year Pentecost; Faith; Holy Spirit; Hope; Prayer Lyrics: 1. Spirit of God, descend upon my heart;
wean it from earth; through all its pulses move;
stoop to my weakness, mighty as thou art,
and make me love thee as I ought to love.
2. I ask no dream, no prophet ecstasies,
no sudden rending of the veil of clay,
no angel visitant, no opening skies;
but take the dimness of my soul away.
3. Hast thou not bid me love thee, God and King?
All, all thine own, soul, heart and strength and mind.
I see thy cross; there teach my heart to cling.
O let me seek thee, and O let me find!
4. Teach me to feel that thou art always nigh;
teach me the struggles of the soul to bear.
To check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh,
teach me the patience of unanswered prayer.
5. Teach me to love thee as thine angels love,
one holy passion filling all my frame;
the kindling of the heaven-descended Dove,
my heart an altar, and thy love the flame.
Scripture: Galatians 5:25 Used With Tune: MORECAMBE
