The royal banners forward go
Author: Venantius Fortunatus, 530-609; J. M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: Common Praise #122b (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week; Lent V Year A; Lent V Year C Lyrics: 1 The royal banners forward go,
the cross shines forth in mystic glow;
where he in flesh, or flesh who made,
our sentence bore, our ransom paid.
2 There whilst he hung, his sacred side
by soldier's spear was opened wide,
to cleanse us in the precious flood
of water mingled with his blood.
3 Fulfilled is now what David told
in true prophetic song of old,
how God the nations' King should be;
for God is reigning on the tree.
4 O tree of glory, tree most fair,
ordained those holy limbs to bear,
how bright in purple robe it stood,
the purple of a Saviour's blood!
5 Upon its arms, like balance true,
he weighed the price for sinners due,
the price which none but he could pay,
and spoiled the spoiler of his prey.
6 To thee, eternal Three in One,
let homage meet by all be done:
as by the cross thou dost restore,
so rule and guide us evermore. Amen. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:24 Languages: English Tune Title: GONFALON ROYAL
The royal banners forward go
All ye who seek for sure relief
Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: Common Praise #101 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week; Lent II Year C; Proper 9 Year A; Proper 26 Year C Lyrics: 1 All ye who seek for sure relief
in trouble and distress,
whatever sorrow vex the mind,
or guilt the soul oppress;
2 Jesus, who gave himself for you
upon the cross to die,
opens to you his sacred heart:
O to that heart draw nigh.
3 Ye hear how kindly he invites;
ye hear his words so blest:
'All ye that labour come to me,
and I will give you rest.'
4 O Jesus, joy of saints on high,
thou hope of sinners here,
attracted by those loving words
to thee we lift our prayer.
5 Wash thou our wounds in that dear blood
which from thy heart doth flow;
a new and contrite heart on all
who cry to thee bestow. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:24 Languages: English Tune Title: ST BERNARD
All ye who seek for sure relief
Beneath the cross of Jesus
Author: Elizabeth Clephane, 1830-1869 Hymnal: Common Praise #105 (2000) Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week; Lent V Year C; Proper 9 Year C; Proper 11 Year A Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus
I fain would take my stand,
the shadow of a mighty rock
within a weary land;
a home within the wilderness,
a rest upon the way,
from the burning of the noontide heat
and the burden of the day.
2 Upon that cross of Jesus
mine eye at times can see
the very dying form of one
who suffered there for me;
and from my smitten heart, with tears,
two wonders I confess:
the wonders of redeeming love,
and my own worthlessness.
3 I take, O cross, thy shadow
for my abiding place;
I ask no other sunshine than
the sunshine of his face;
content to let the world go by,
to know no gain nor loss;
my sinful self my only shame,
my glory all, the cross. Scripture: Galatians 6:14 Languages: English Tune Title: ST CHRISTOPHER
Beneath the cross of Jesus
Glory be to Jesus
Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: Common Praise #108 (2000) Meter: 6.5.6.5 Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week; Lent V Year A Lyrics: 1 Glory be to Jesus,
who, in bitter pains,
poured for me the life-blood
from his sacred veins.
2 Grace and life eternal
in that blood I find;
blest be his compassion,
infinitely kind.
3 Blest through endless ages
be the precious stream,
which from endless torments
did the world redeem.
4 Abel's blood for vengeance
pleaded to the skies;
but the blood of Jesus
for our pardon cries.
5 Oft as it is sprinkled
on our guilty hearts,
Satan in confusion
terror-struck departs.
6 Oft as earth exulting
wafts its praise on high,
angel-hosts rejoicing
make their glad reply.
7 Lift ye then your voices;
swell the mighty flood;
louder still and louder
praise the precious blood. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:12 Languages: English Tune Title: CASWALL
Glory be to Jesus
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; Lent V Year A 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
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; Lent V Year B 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
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Hymnal: Common Praise #126 (2000) Meter: Irregular Topics: Passiontide and Holy Week; Lent V Year B Lyrics: 1 Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble;
were you there when they crucified my Lord?
2 Were you there when they nailed him to the tree?
Were you there when they nailed him to the tree?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble;
were you there when they nailed him to the tree?
3 Were you there when they laid him in the tomb?
Were you there when they laid him in the tomb?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble;
were you there when they laid him in the tomb? Scripture: Acts 5:30 Languages: English Tune Title: WERE YOU THERE
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
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; Lent V Year A; Palm Sunday Year B; Good Friday; Proper 9 Year C 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
