Jesus, refuge of the weary

Meter: 8.7 Appears in 58 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, refuge of the weary, Object of the Spirit's love, Fountain in life's desert dreary, Saviour from the world above: 2 O how oft Thine eyes, offended, Gazed upon the sinner's fall! Yet, upon the cross extended, Thou didst bear the pain of all. 3 Do we pass that cross unheeding, Breathing no repentant vow, Though we see Thee wounded, bleeding, See Thy thorn-encircled brow? 4 Yet Thy sinless death has brought us Life eternal, peace, and rest; Only what Thy grace has taught us Calms the sinner's stormy breast. 5 Jesus, may our hearts be burning With more fervent love for Thee; May our eyes be ever turning To Thy cross of agony; 6 Till in glory, parted never From the blessed Saviour's side, Graven in our hearts for ever, Dwell the cross, the Crucified.

Suffering Son of Man, be near me

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Suffering Son of man, be near me, In my sufferings to sustain; By my 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. 4 By Thy fainting in the garden, By Thy dreadful Death, I pray, Write upon my heart Thy pardon, Take my sins and fears away. 5 By the travail of Thy spirit, By Thine outcry on the Tree, By thine agonizing merit, Gracious Lord, remember me!
