Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #328 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, sweet the tears I shed
While at thy cross I kneel,
Gaze on thy wounded, fainting head,
And all thy sorrows feel.
2 My heart dissolves to see thee bleed,
This heart so hard before;
I hear thee for the guilty plead,
And grief o'erflows the more.
3 I know this cleansing blood of thine
Was shed, dear Lord, for me;
For me, for all, O, grace divine!
Who look by faith on thee.
4 In patient hope the cross I'll bear,
Thine arm shall be my stay;
And thou, enthroned, my soul shalt spare
On thy great Judgment-day. Topics: Christ Sufferings and Death Tune Title: CHINA
