105. O come and mourn with me awhile

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 Have we no tears to shed for Him,
While soldiers scoff and foes deride?
Ah! look how patiently He hangs;
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified.

3 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!

Amen.
