There is no sorrow, Lord, too light
Author: Mrs. Jane Crewdson, 1809-1863; Dr. B. H. Kennedy, 1821-1889 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #535 (1917) Topics: The Christian Life Comfort and Sympathy; Sympathy Human; Sympathy Of Christ Lyrics: 1 There is no sorrow, Lord, too light
To bring in prayer to Thee;
There is no anxious care too slight
To wake Thy sympathy.
2 Thou, who hast trod the thorny road,
Wilt share each small distress;
The love, which bore the greater load,
Will not refuse the less.
3 There is no secret sigh we breathe,
But meets Thine ear divine,
And every cross grows light beneath
The shadow, Lord, of Thine.
4 Life's ills without, sin's strife within,
The heart would overflow,
But for that love which died for sin,
That love which wept with woe. Languages: English Tune Title: CLAUDIUS
There is no sorrow, Lord, too light
When gathering clouds around I view
Author: Sir R. Grant, 1735-1838 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #542 (1917) Topics: Suffering Christ's Sympathy; Suffering Christ's Sympathy; The Christian Life Comfort and Sympathy; Sympathy Of Christ Lyrics: 1 When gathering clouds around I view,
And days are dark, and friends are few,
On Him I lean, who not in vain
Experienced every human pain;
He knows my wants, allays my fears,
And counts and treasures all my tears.
2 If aught should tempt my soul to stray
From heavenly wisdom's narrow way,
To fly the good I would pursue,
Or do the thing I would not do;
Still He, who felt temptation's power,
Shall guard me in that dangerous hour.
3 If wounded love my bosom swell,
Deceived by those I prized too well,
He shall His pitying aid bestow,
Who felt on earth severer woe
At once betrayed, denied, or fled,
By those who shared His daily bread.
4 And oh! when I have safely passed
Through every conflict but the last,
Still, still unchanging, watch beside
My dying bed for Thou hast died;
Then point to realms of cloudless day,
And wipe the latest tear away. Languages: English Tune Title: ATTOLLE PAULUM

With joy we meditate the grace
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #135 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christ Sympathy of; Sympathy Of Christ Lyrics: 1 With joy we meditate the grace
Of our High Priest above;
His heart is made of tenderness,
It melts with pitying love.
2 Touched with a sympathy within,
He knows our feeble frame;
He knows what sore temptations mean,
For He has felt the same.
3 He, in the days of feeble flesh,
Poured out His cries and tears,
And in His measure feels afresh
What every member bears.
4 He'll never quench the smoking flax,
But raise it to a flame;
The bruisèd reed He never breaks,
Nor scorns the meanest name.
5 Then let our humble faith address
His mercy and His power;
We shall obtain delivering grace
In the distressing hour.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HALLON

As oft with worn and weary feet
Author: James Edmeston Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #234 (1899) Topics: Christ Sympathy of; Sympathy Of Christ Lyrics: 1 As oft with worn and weary feet,
We tread earth’s rugged valley o’er,
The thought how comforting and sweet,
Christ trod this very path before!
Our wants and weaknesses He knows,
From life’s first dawning to its close.
2 Does sickness, feebleness, or pain,
Or sorrow in our path appear?
The recollection will remain,
More deeply did He suffer here;
His life how truly sad and brief,
Filled up with suffering and with grief.
3 If Satan tempt our hearts to stray,
And whisper evil things within,
So did he in the desert way
Assail our Lord with thoughts of sin:
When worn, and in a feeble hour,
The tempter came with all his power.
4 Just such as I, this earth He trod,
With every human ill but sin;
And, though indeed the very God,
As I am now, so He has been;
My God, my Saviour, look on me
With pity, love, and sympathy.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: PATER OMNIUM

Poured our His cries and tears;

What every member bears.

The bruised reed He never breaks,
Nor scorns the meanest name.

For he hath felt the same.

While Satan's fiery Darts he bore,
And did resist to Blood.

Pour'd out his Cries and Tears,
And in his Measure feels afresh
What ev'ry Member bears.

But raise it to a Flame;
The bruised Reed he never breaks,
Nor scorns the meanest Name.

His Mercy and his Pow'r;
We shall obtain deliv'ring Grace
In the distressing Hour.

Where high the heavenly temple stands
Author: Michael Bruce, 1746-1767 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #73 (1917) Topics: Christ Sympathy of; Sympathy Of Christ Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands,
The house of God not made with hands,
A great High Priest our nature wears,
The guardian of mankind appears.
2 He who for men their surety stood,
And poured on earth His precious blood,
Pursues in heaven His mighty plan,
The Saviour and the Friend of man.
3 Though now ascended up on high,
He bends on earth a brother's eye;
Partaker of the human name,
He knows the frailty of our frame.
4 Our fellow-sufferer yet retains
A fellow-feeling of our pains;
And still remembers in the skies
His tears, His agonies and cries.
5 In every pang that rends the heart,
The Man of sorrows had a part;
He sympathizes with our grief,
And to the sufferer sends relief.
6 With boldness, therefore, at the throne,
Let us make all our sorrows known;
And ask the aid of heavenly power
To help us in the evil hour. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ALBAN

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 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

Author: Thomas H. Gill Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #449 (1899) Topics: Christ Sympathy of; Sympathy Of Christ Lyrics: 1 Oh, mean may seem this house of clay--
Yet 'twas the Lord's abode;
Our feet may mourn this thorny way,
Yet here Emmanuel trod.

This watch the Lord did keep,
These burdens sore the Lord did bear,
These tears the Lord did weep.
3 This world the Master overcame,
This death the Lord did die;
O vanquished world! 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!

Unto the Lord of heaven;
To every grief, to every tear,
Such glory strange is given.

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]
Thou knowest, Lord, the weariness and sorrow
