That love which wept with woe. Languages: English Tune Title: CLAUDIUS

At the Cross Her Vigil Keeping
Author: Edward Caswall; Jacopone da Todi Hymnal: Voices United #139 (1996) Meter: 8.8.7 Topics: Sorrow Lyrics: 1 At the cross, her vigil keeping
stood the mournful Mother weeping
where he hung, the dying Lord;
2 through her soul of joy bereavèd,
bowed with sorrow, deeply grievèd,
passed the sharp and piercing sword.
3 Who upon that mother gazing,
in her anguish so amazing,
born of woman, would not weep?
4 Who, of Christ's dear Mother thinking
while her son that cup is drinking,
would not share her sorrow deep?
5 For his people's sins chastisèd
she beheld her Son despisèd
scourged, and crowned with thorns entwined,
6 saw him then from judgement taken,
and in death by all forsaken,
till his spirit he resigned.
7 Near your cross, O Christ, abiding,
grief and love my heart dividing,
I with her would take my place:
8 by your saving cross uphold me,
in your dying, Christ, enfold me,
with the deathless arms of grace. Tune Title: STABAT MATER

were he not my defender
before the judgment throne,
I never should find favor
and mercy in God's sight,
but be destroyed forever

all sorrow disappears;
and full of mirth and singing,
it wipes away all tears.
The sun that cheers my spirit
is Jesus Christ, my king;
the heav'n I shall inherit
makes me rejoice and sing.

Forbid it, that omnipotence
Should crush a feeble worm.
3 If tears of sorrow could suffice
To pay the debt I owe,
Tears should from both my weeping eyes
In ceaseless currents flow.
4 But no such sacrifice I plead
To expiate my guilt;
No tears, but those which thou has shed,
No blood, but thou hast spilt.
5 Think of thy sorrows, dearest Lord,
And all my sins forgive;
Then justice will approve the word
That bids the sinner live.
Scripture: Psalm 51:3-4

Jesus, in your life we see you
Come, Let Us to the God of Love
Author: John Morison Hymnal: Voices United #653 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Sorrow Lyrics: 1 Come, let us to the God of love
with contrite hearts return:
our God is gracious, nor will leave
the desolate to mourn.
2 God's voice commands the tempest forth,
and stills the stormy wave;
and though God's arm be strong to smite,
'tis also strong to save.
3 Long has the night of sorrow reigned;
the dawn shall bring us light;
God shall appear, and we shall rise
with gladness at that sight.
4 As dew upon the tender herb
diffusing fragrance round,
as showers that usher in the spring
and cheer the thirsty ground,
5 so shall God's presence bless our souls
and shed a joyful light;
that hallowed morn shall chase away
the sorrows of the night. Languages: English Tune Title: BELMONT
