Author: Dr. H. H. Milman, 1791-1868 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #570 (1917) Topics: Mourners Lyrics: 1 When our heads are bowed with woe,
When our bitter tears o'erflow,
When we mourn the lost, the dear,
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear.
2 When the heart is sad within
With the thought of all its sin,
When the spirit shrinks with fear,
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear.
3 Thou our throbbing flesh hast worn,
Thou our mortal griefs hast borne,
Thou hast shed the human tear;
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear.
4 Thou hast bowed the dying head,
Thou the blood of life hast shed,
Thou hast filled a mortal bier
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear. Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD No. 47
