Christ, on the Night He Was Betrayed

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ, on the night he was betrayed, for us a plain example made. The Paschal feast had been prepared, and with his friends he freely shared. 2 Before he suffered, he desired to show us all what love required. The honored teacher left his seat and knelt to wash his servant’s feet. 3 Such gentle kindness did he show with towel and basin, stooping low! When all were washed, he stood to ask that they repeat this humble task. 4 “If I have done this unto you, you ought to serve each other, too. And if my servants you would be, obey my word and follow me.” Topics: Communion; Discipleship; Holy Thursday; Humility; Jesus Christ Life of; Journey to the Cross; Obedience; Service Scripture: John 13:1-30 Used With Tune: ROCKINGHAM OLD Text Sources: A Selection of Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs (Mennonite, USA), 1847, alt.
