Part IV "Why hast Thou forsaken Me?" 1 Jesus, whelmed in fears unknown, With our evil left alone, While no light from heaven is shown:-- Hear us, holy Jesus! 2 When we vainly seem to pray, And our hopes seem far away, In the darkness be our stay! Hear us, holy Jesus! 3 Though no Father seem to hear, Though no light our spirits cheer, Tell our faith that God is near! Hear us, holy Jesus!

Hear us, holy Jesus! 3 Brighten all our heavenward way, With an ever holier ray, Till we pass to perfect day! Hear us, holy Jesus! Part VII "Father, into Thy Hands." 1 Jesus, all Thy labor vast, All Thy woe and conflict past, Yielding up Thy soul at last:-- Hear us, holy Jesus! 2 When the death shades round us lower, Guard us from the tempter's power, Keep us in that trial hour! Hear us, holy Jesus! 3 May Thy life and death supply Grace to live and grace to die, Grace to reach the home on high! Hear us, holy Jesus! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: SEPTEM VOCES

We read thee in the sky above, We read thee in the earth below, In seas that swell, and streams that flow. 4 We read thee best in Him who came To bear for us the cross of shame; Sent by the Father from on high, Our life to live, our death to die. 5 We read thy power to bless and save, E'en in the darkness of the grave; Still more in resurrection-light We read the fulness of thy might. 6 O love of God, our shield and stay Through all the perils of our way; Eternal love, in thee we rest, Forever safe, forever blest.

Shall dust repeat Thy praises, Shall it Thy truth declare? O Lord, on me have mercy, And my petition hear; That Thou mayst be my helper, In mercy, Lord, appear. 5 My grief is turned to gladness, To Thee my thanks I raise, Who hast removed my sorrow And girded me with praise; And now, no longer silent, My heart Thy praise will sing; O Lord, my God, for ever My thanks to Thee I bring.

'Twas "Even so, Father," we ever must sing, Because it seem'd good in Thy sight. 5 Urged on by His grace, did the Saviour appear, The bearer of help from above: Now all who are thirsting may freely draw near And drink in the streams of His love. 6 Then give all the glory to His holy name, To Him all the glory belongs; Be ours the high joys still to sound forth His fame, And crown Him in each of our songs.

When, His salvation bringing

Author: Rev. John King Hymnal: The Hymnal #149 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Christ Love of Lyrics: 1 When, His salvation bringing, To Zion Jesus came, The children all stood singing Hosanna to His Name; Nor did their zeal offend Him, But, as He rode along, He let them still attend Him, · And smiled to hear their song. 2 And since the Lord retaineth His love for children still, Though now as King He reigneth On Zion's heavenly hill, We'll flock around His banner Who sits upon His throne, And cry aloud, "Hosanna To David's royal Son!" 3 For should we fail proclaiming Our great Redeemer's praise, The stones, our silence shaming, Would their hosannas raise. But shall we only render The tribute of our words? No; while our hearts are tender, They, too, shall be the Lord's. Amen. Tune Title: TOURS
