Ah, holy Jesus, how hast thou offended

Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930; J. Heerman, 1585-1647 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #5 (2000) Scripture: Matthew 27:39-46 Lyrics: 1 Ah, holy Jesus, how hast thou offended, that we to judge thee have in hate pretended? By foes derided, by thine own rejected, O most afflicted. 2 Who was the guilty? Who brought this upon thee? Alas, O Lord, my treason hath undone thee. 'Twas I, Lord Jesu, I it was denied thee: I crucified thee. 3 Lo, the good shepherd for the sheep is offered; the slave hath sinned, and the Son hath suffered; for our atonement, Christ himself is pleading, still interceding. 4 For me, kind Jesu, was thy incarnation, thy mortal sorrow, and thy life's oblation; thy death of anguish and thy bitter passion, for my salvation. 5 Therefore, kind Jesu, since I cannot pay thee, I do adore thee, and will ever pray thee, think on thy pity and thy love unswerving, not my deserving.
