O who am I, that for my sake my God should take frail flesh and die? My God should take frail flesh and die? 2 God left the richest throne salvation to bestow; But Christ as flesh and bone the world refused to know. But, O my Friend, my Friend indeed, who at my need did life expend; who at my need did life expend. 3 Sometimes they threw down palms and sweetest praises sang. Hosannas and glad psalms through streets and markets rang. Then "Crucify!" is all their breath, for blood and death they thirst and cry; for blood and death they thirst and cry. 4 What has my Sovereign done? What makes this rage and spite? Christ gave new strength to run, restored the gift of sight. Sweet injuries! Yet they at these themselves displease, and 'gainst Christ rise; themselves displease, and 'gainst Christ rise. 5 I sing my plain belief, one song my heart out-pours: Never was pain nor grief, never was love like yours. This is my Friend, in whose sweet praise I all my days could gladly spend; I all my days could gladly spend. Scripture: Hebrews 5:7-10 Languages: English Tune Title: RHOSYMEDRE

Amid the Thronging Worshipers

Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #22E (2012) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Church Year Good Friday; Year A, B, C, Holy Week, Good Friday Lyrics: 1 Amid the thronging worshipers the Lord, our God, I bless; before his people gathered here his name will I confess. Come, praise him, all who fear the Lord, the children of his grace; with reverence sound his glories forth and bow before his face. 2 The burden of the sorrowful the Lord will not despise; he has not turned from those who mourn, he listens to their cries. His goodness makes me join the throng where saints his praise proclaim, and there will I fulfill my vows with those who fear his name. 3 He feeds with good the humble soul and satisfies the meek, and they shall live and praise the Lord who for his mercy seek. The ends of all the earth will hear, the nations seek the Lord; they worship him, the King of kings, in earth and heaven adored. Languages: English Tune Title: BOVINA
