Let Us Go To Bethlehem
Author: Mrs. B. L. Corbin Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let us go to Bethlehem;
There the King of Glory lies!
He has left His diadem,
And His throne beyond the skies!
He, the Lord of endless years,
Now a feeble babe appears.
2 Let us go to Bethlehem:
God descends with men to dwell!
And He comes not to condemn,
But to save from sin and hell:
Oh, what rich and boundless grace,
To our lost and guilty race!
3 Let us go to Bethlehem:
Eastern magi worship there;
Let us strive to rival them,
With the incense of our prayer;
And our hearts, as offerings bring,
To the glorious new-born King.

linger on the trembling chords;
let the "little while" between

lie beyond that "Till he come."

drink the wine and break the bread -
sweet memorials - till the Lord
call us round his heav'nly board;
some from earth, from glory some,

Throned upon the awful tree
Author: John Ellerton, 1826-1893 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Throned upon the awful tree,
King of grief, I watch with thee;
darkness veils thine anguished face,
none its lines of woe can trace,
none can tell what pangs unknown
hold thee silent and alone:
2 silent through those three dread hours,
wrestling with the evil powers,
left alone with human sin,
gloom around thee and within,
till the appointed time is nigh,
till the Lamb of God may die.
3 Hark that cry that peals aloud
upward through the whelming cloud!
Thou, the Father’s only Son,
thou, His own Anointed One,
thou dost ask him (can it be?)
'Why hast thou forsaken me?'
4 Lord, should fear and anguish roll
darkly o’er my sinful soul,
thou, who once wast thus bereft
that thine own might ne’er be left,
teach me by that bitter cry
in the gloom to know thee nigh. Topics: Hymns for the Church Year Good Friday Scripture: Matthew 27:46 Used With Tune: CASSEL
