Our Blessèd Savior Seven Times Spoke

Author: Johann Böschenstein; Frances E. Cox Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4715 Meter: 8.8.7.8.7 First Line: Our blessèd Savior sev'n times spoke Lyrics: 1. Our blessèd Savior sev’n times spoke When on the cross our sins He took And died lest men should perish. Let us His last and dying words In our remembrance cherish. 2. Father, forgive these men; for, lo, They truly know not what they do. So far His love extended. Forgive us, Lord, for we, too, have Through ignorance offended. 3. Now to the contrite thief He cries: Thou, verily, in paradise Shall meet Me ere tomorrow. Lord, take us to Thy kingdom soon Who linger here in sorrow. 4. To weeping Mary, standing by, Behold thy Son, now hear Him cry; To John, Behold thy mother. Provide, O Lord, for those we leave; Let each befriend the other. 5. The Savior’s fourth word was I thirst. O mighty Prince of Life, Thy thirst For us and our salvation Is truly great; do help us, then, That we escape damnation. 6. The fifth, My God, My God, O why Forsake Me? Hark, the awful cry! Lord, Thou wast here forsaken That we might be received on high; Let this hope not be shaken. 7. The sixth, when victory was won, ’Tis finished! for Thy work was done. Grant, Lord, that, onward pressing, We may the work Thou dost impose Fulfill with Thine own blessing. 8. The last, as woe and sufferings end, O God, My Father, I commend Into Thy hands My Spirit. Be this, dear Lord, my dying wish; O heavenly Father, hear it. 9. Whoe’er, by sense of sin oppressed, Upon these words his thoughts will rest, He joy and hope obtaineth And through God’s love and boundless grace A peaceful conscience gaineth. 10. O Jesus Christ, Thou crucified, Who hast for our offenses died, Grant that we e’er may ponder Thy wounds, Thy cross, Thy bitter death, Both here below and yonder.

Forgive, O Father!

Author: Arthur T. Russell Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9686 Meter: 8.8.7.8.7 First Line: "Forgive, O Father!" Jesus cries Lyrics: 1 "Forgive, O Father!" Jesus cries; Lord, may Thy prayer for us arise; Cleanse us from our transgression: Our guilt Thou knowest―Thou alone; Accept, Lord, our confession. 2 Grant us ere long in paradise On Thee to rest our joyful eyes; This hope Thy death procurèd: We had those dying pains deserved Which thy great love endurèd. 3 Lord, by the thought of all Thy pain, Turn us from pleasures false and vain; Our love to Thee awaken, O Thou for us upon the cross Awhile of God forsaken! 4 When Thou in death didst bow Thine head, Thou crièdest, "It is finishèd," The work of our salvation: Oh who can worthily praise Thee, Our great Propitiation!

When on the cross the Savior hung

Author: Justus Gesenius; David Denike; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #74 (1908) Lyrics: 1 When on the cross the Savior hung, And that sore load that on Him weighed With bitter pangs His nature wrung, Seven words amid His pain He said: O let them well to heart be laid! 2 "Father, forgive these men," He spake, "For lo! they know not what they do; Nor of my sufferings vengeance take!" And when we sin in weakness, too, For us, dear Lord, this prayer renew! 3 He thought upon the thief, and said,-- "Thou shalt behold my Paradise With me, ere yet this day be fled." Lord, see us too with pitying eyes, And raise us from our miseries! 4 His mother stood beside Him there; "Behold thy son! And let her find A son, O John, in thy true care." Lord, care for those we leave behind, Nor let the world prove all unkind! 5 Once more He saith:--"I thirst, I thirst!" O Prince of Life! that we might be Rescued from death, Thou dar'st the worst. So dost Thou long to set us free; Not fruitless be that thirst in Thee! 6 Again, "My God, My God," He cried, "Ah why dost Thou forsake me thus?" Thou art forsaken at this tide, To win acceptance, Lord, for us; O comfort deep and marvelous! 7 He saith--"Lo! it is finished now!" Savior, thy perfect work is done! O make us faithful, Lord, as Thou, No trial and no cross to shun, Till all Thou lay'st on us be done. 8 At last,--"My Father, to Thine hands My parting soul I now commend." Lord, when my spirit trembling stands Upon life's verge, this cry I send To Thee, and with Thy words I end. 9 Whoso shall ponder oft these words When long-past sins his soul alarm, Shall find the hope Thy cross accords, And in Thy grace a healing balm That brings the wounded conscience calm. 10 Lord Jesus Christ, who diedst for us, This one thing grant us evermore; To ponder o'er Thy passion thus, Till truer, deeper than before, We learn to love Thee and adore!
