How condescending and how kind

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #138 (1899) Topics: Christ Sympathy of; Sympathy Of Christ Lyrics: 1 How condescending and how kind Was God's eternal son! Our misery reached His heavenly mind, And pity brought Him down. 2 This was compassion like a God, That when the Saviour knew The price of pardon was His blood, His pity ne'er withdrew. 3 Now, though He reigns exalted high, His love is still as great: Well He remembers Calvary, Nor should His saints forget. 4 Here we receive repeated seals Of Jesus' dying love: Hard is the heart that never feels One soft affection move. 5 Here let our hearts begin to melt, While we His death record, And with our joy for pardoned guilt, Mourn that we pierced the Lord. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: MANOAH

What a friend we have in Jesus

Author: Joseph Scriven Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #427 (1899) Topics: Christ Sympathy of; Sympathy Of Christ Lyrics: 1 What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear; What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer. Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear-- All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer. 2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged, Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a Friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness, Take it to the Lord in prayer. 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Saviour, still our refuge,-- Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer; In His arms He'll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ERIE

O glorious shame! O hallowed agony! 4 O vale of tears, no longer sad, Wherein the Lord did dwell! O holy robe of flesh, that clad Our own Immanuel! 5 Our very frailty brings us near Unto the Lord of heaven; To every grief, to every tear, Such glory strange is given. Amen.

Thou knowest, Lord, the weariness and sorrow

Author: Jane Borthwick Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #630 (1894) Meter: 11.10.11.10.10.10 Topics: Sympathy Lyrics: 1 Thou knowest, Lord, the weariness and sorrow Of the sad heart that comes to Thee for rest; Cares of today, and burdens for tomorrow, Blessings implored, and sins to be confest; We come before Thee at Thy gracious word, And lay them at Thy feet: Thou knowest, Lord. 2 Thou knowest all the past; how long and blindly On the dark mountains the lost wanderer strayed; How the Good Shepherd followed, and how kindly He bore it home, upon His shoulders laid; And healed the bleeding wounds, and soothed the pan, And brought back life, and hope: and strength again. 3 Thou knowest all the present; each temptation, Each toilsome duty, each foreboding fear; All to myself assigned, of tribulation, Or to belovèd ones, than self more dear; All pensive memories, as I journey on, Longings for vanished smiles and voices gone. 4 Thou knowest all the future: gleams of gladness By stormy clouds too quickly overcast; Hours of sweet fellowship and parting sadness, And the dark river to be crossed at last. Oh, what could hope and confidence afford To tread that path, but this? Thou knowest, Lord. 5 Thou knowest, not alone as God, all-knowing; As Man, our mortal weakness Thou hast proved; On earth, with purest sympathies o'erflowing, O Saviour, Thou hast wept, and Thou hast loved; And love and sorrow still to Thee may come, And find a hiding-place, a rest, a home. 6 Therefore I come, Thy gentle call obeying, And lay my sins and sorrows at Thy feet; On everlasting Strength my weakness staying, Clothed in Thy robe of righteousness complete: Then rising and refreshed I leave Thy throne, And follow on to know as I am known. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [Thou knowest, Lord, the weariness and sorrow]
