O Sacred Head! sore wounded
Author: James Waddell Alexander (1804-1859); Paul Gerhardt (1607-1676) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #382 (2005) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Scripture: Matthew 27:29 Lyrics: 1 O Sacred Head! sore wounded,
with grief and shame weighed down!
O Kingly Head, surrounded
with thorns, thine only crown!
How pale art thou with anguish,
with sore abuse and scorn!
How does that face now languish,
which once was bright as morn!
2 O Lord of life and glory,
what bliss till now was thine!
I read the wondrous story;
I joy to call thee mine.
Thy grief and bitter Passion
were all for sinners' gain;
mine, mine was the transgression,
but thine the deadly pain.
3 What language shall I borrow
to praise thee, heavenly Friend,
for this, thy dying sorrow,
thy pity without end?
O make me thine for ever,
and, should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
outlive my love for thee.
4 Be near me, Lord, when dying;
O show thy cross to me;
and, my last need supplying,
come, Lord, and set me free;
these eyes, new faith receiving,
from thee shall never move;
for they who die believing
die safely through thy love. Topics: Life in Christ Christ Incarnante - Passion and Death; Christian Year Good Friday; Death and Bereavement; Devotion Languages: English Tune Title: PASSION CHORALE

Author: Paul Gerhardt; James W. Alexander Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #383 (1987) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Scripture: Matthew 27:29 Lyrics: 1 O sacred head, now wounded,
with grief and shame weighed down,
now scornfully surrounded
with thorns, your only crown.
O sacred head, what glory
and blessing you have known!
Yet, though despised and gory,
I claim you as my own.
2 My Lord, what you did suffer
was all for sinners' gain;
mine, mine was the transgression,
but yours the deadly pain.
So here I kneel, my Savior,
for I deserve your place;
look on me with your favor
and save me by your grace.
3 What language shall I borrow
to thank you, dearest Friend,
for this, your dying sorrow,
your mercy without end?
Lord, make me yours forever,
a loyal servant true,
and let me never, never
outlive my love for you.

There Is a Green Hill Far Away
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #353 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Matthew 27:32-56 Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
outside a city wall,
where the dear Lord was crucified,
who died to save us all.
2 We may not know, we cannot tell,
what pains he had to bear;
but we believe it was for us
he hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiv'n,
he died to make us good,
that we might go at last to heav'n,
saved by his precious blood.
4 There was no other good enough
to pay the price of sin;
he only could unlock the gate
of heav'n, and let us in.
5 O dearly, dearly has he loved,
and we must love him too,
and trust in his redeeming blood,
and try his works to do. Topics: Holy Week; Christ--Atonement; Christ--Love of; Christ--Sacrifice of; Christian year--Holy Week; Love for Christ Languages: English Tune Title: GREEN HILL

Sheds its beams around me. [Refrain]

With its shadows o'er me. [Refrain]

Till I reach the golden strand
Just beyond the river. [Refrain] Topics: Good Friday; Funeral Sacraments; Cross; Discipleship; Eternal Life; Hope; Lamb of God; Mercy, Forgiveness; Patience; Redemption; Rest; Trust in Jesus Christ Languages: English Tune Title: NEAR THE CROSS
