O come and mourn with me awhile
Author: F. W. Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: Common Praise #114 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 O come and mourn with me awhile;
O come ye to the Saviour's side;
O come, together let us mourn:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified!
2 Seven times he spoke, seven words of love;
and all three hours his silence cried
for mercy on the souls of all:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified!
3 O break, O break, hard heart of mine!
Thy weak self-love and guilty pride
his Pilate and his Judas were:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified!
4 O love of God! O sin of man!
In this dread act your strength is tried;
and victory remains with Love:
for he, our Lord, is crucified! Scripture: John 19:16-30 Languages: English Tune Title: ST CROSS
O come and mourn with me awhile
O cross of Christ, immortal tree
Author: Stanbrook Abbey Hymnal: Common Praise #115 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 O cross of Christ, immortal tree
on which our Saviour died,
the world is sheltered by your arms
that bore the crucified.
2 From bitter death and barren wood
the tree of life is made;
its branches bear unfailing fruit
and leaves that never fade.
3 O faithful cross, you stand unmoved
while ages run their course:
foundation of the universe,
creation's binding force.
4 Give glory to the risen Christ
and to his cross give praise,
the sign of God's unfathomed love,
the hope of all our days. Scripture: Acts 5:30 Languages: English Tune Title: ARDEN
O cross of Christ, immortal tree
O love divine, what hast thou done!
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Common Praise #117 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 O Love divine, what hast thou done!
The immortal God hath died for me!
The Father’s co-eternal Son
bore all my sins upon the tree;
the immortal God for me hath died!
My Lord, my Love is crucified:
2 Is crucified for me and you,
to bring us rebels back to God;
believe, believe the record true,
we all are bought with Jesu’ blood,
pardon for all flows from his side:
my Lord, my Love, is crucified.
3 Then let us sit beneath the cross,
and gladly catch the healing stream,
all things for him account but loss,
and give up all our hearts to him;
of nothing think or speak beside:
my Lord, my Love is crucified. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:2 Languages: English Tune Title: COLCHESTER
O love divine, what hast thou done!
O sacred head, sore wounded
Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676; Robert Bridges, 1844-1930 Hymnal: Common Praise #119 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 O sacred head, sore wounded,
defiled and put to scorn;
O kingly head, surrounded
with mocking crown of thorn:
what sorrow mars thy grandeur?
Can death thy bloom deflower?
O countenance whose splendour
the hosts of heaven adore.
2 Thy beauty, long desirèd,
hath vanished from our sight;
thy power is all expirèd,
and quenched the Light of light.
Ah me! for whom thou diest,
hide not so far thy grace:
show me, O Love most highest,
the brightness of thy face.
3 I pray thee, Jesus, own me,
me, Shepherd good, for thine;
who to thy fold hast won me,
and fed with truth divine.
Me guilty, me refuse not,
incline thy face to me,
this comfort that I lose not,
on earth to comfort thee.
4 In thy most bitter passion
my heart to share doth cry,
with thee for my salvation
upon the cross to die.
Ah, keep my heart thus movèd
to stand thy cross beneath,
to mourn thee, well-belovèd,
yet thank thee for thy death.
5 My days are few, O fail not,
with thine immortal power,
to hold me that I quail not
in death's most fearful hour:
that I may fight befriended,
and see in my last strife
to me thine arms extended
upon the cross of life. Scripture: Isaiah 53:3 Languages: English Tune Title: PASSION CHORALE
O sacred head, sore wounded
O sacred head, surrounded
Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676; H. W. Baker, 1821-1877 Hymnal: Common Praise #120 (2000) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 O sacred head, surrounded
by crown of piercing thorn!
O bleeding head, so wounded,
so shamed and put to scorn!
Death's pallid hue comes o'er thee,
the glow of life decays;
yet angel-hosts adore thee,
and tremble as they gaze.
2 Thy comeliness and vigour
is withered up and gone,
and in thy wasted figure
I see death drawing on.
O agony and dying!
O love to sinners free!
Jesu, all grace supplying,
turn thou thy face on me.
3 In this thy bitter passion,
good Shepherd, think of me
with thy most sweet compassion,
unworthy though I be:
beneath thy cross abiding
for ever would I rest,
in thy dear love confiding,
and with thy presence blest. Scripture: Isaiah 52:2 Languages: English Tune Title: PASSION CHORALE
O sacred head, surrounded
There is a green hill far away
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1818-1895 Hymnal: Common Praise #123 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
without a city wall,
where the dear Lord was crucified,
who died to save us all.
2 We may not know, we cannot tell,
what pains he had to bear,
but we believe it was for us
he hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiven,
he died to make us good,
that we might go at last to heaven,
saved by his precious blood.
4 There was no other good enough
to pay the price of sin;
he only could unlock the gate
of heaven, and let us in.
5 O dearly, dearly has he loved,
and we must love him too,
and trust in his redeeming blood,
and try his works to do. Scripture: 1 John 4:19 Languages: English Tune Title: HORSLEY
There is a green hill far away
To mock your reign, O dearest Lord
Author: F. Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Hymnal: Common Praise #124 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Scripture: Genesis 3:7-11 Languages: English Tune Title: THIRD MODE MELODY
To mock your reign, O dearest Lord
We sing the praise of him who died
Author: Thomas Kelly, 1769-1855 Hymnal: Common Praise #125 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 We sing the praise of him who died,
of him who died upon the cross;
the sinner's hope let men deride,
for this we count the world but loss.
2 Inscribed upon the cross we see
in shining letters, 'God is love';
he bears our sins upon the tree;
he brings us mercy from above.
3 The cross! It takes our guilt away:
it holds the fainting spirit up;
it cheers with hope the gloomy day,
and sweetens every bitter cup.
4 It makes the coward spirit brave,
and nerves the feeble arm for fight;
it takes its terror from the grave,
and gilds the bed of death with light:
5 The balm of life, the cure of woe,
the measure and the pledge of love,
the sinner's refuge here below,
the angels' theme in heaven above. Scripture: 1 John 4:8 Languages: English Tune Title: BOW BRICKHILL
We sing the praise of him who died
When I survey the wondrous cross
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Common Praise #127a (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross
on which the Prince of glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss,
and pour contempt on all my pride.
2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast
save in the cross of Christ my God;
all the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to his blood.
3 See from his head, his hands, his feet,
sorrow and love flow mingled down;
did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
or thorns compose so rich a crown!
4 His dying crimson, like a robe,
spreads o'er his body on the tree:
then am I dead to all the globe,
and all the globe is dead to me.
5 Were the whole realm of nature mine,
that were a present far too small;
love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all. Scripture: Galatians 6:14 Languages: English Tune Title: ROCKINGHAM
