Glory be to Jesus
Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-78 Meter: 6.5.6.5 Appears in 208 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 53:2-6 Lyrics: 1 Glory be to Jesus,
who in bitter pains,
poured for me the life blood
from his sacred veins.
2 Grace and life eternal
in that blood I find;
blest be his compassion
infinitely kind.
3 Blessed through endless ages
be the precious stream,
which from endless torment
did the world redeem.
4 Abel's blood for vengeance
pleaded to the skies;
but the blood of Jesus
for our pardon cries.
5 Oft as it is sprinkled
on our guilty hearts,
Satan in confusion
terror-struck departs.
6 Oft as earth exulting
wafts its praise on high,
angel hosts rejoicing
make their glad reply.
7 Let us lift our voices,
swell the mighty flood;
louder still and louder
praise the precious blood. Topics: Atonement; Christ's Sacrifice; Devotion; Good Friday; Jesus Christ Passion and Cross; Passion Sunday; Redemption; Satan Used With Tune: CASWALL Text Sources: Anon., Italian, c. 1815

On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the king,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The babe, the son of Mary!
2 Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear; for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,
The cross be borne for me, for you;
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
The babe, the son of Mary!
3 So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh;
Come, peasant, king, to own Him.
The King of kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
Raise, raise the song on high,
The virgin sings her lullaby;
Joy, joy, for Christ is born,
The babe, the son of Mary! Used With Tune: GREENSLEEVES

And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart!

And did the holy and the just
Author: Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 123 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 53:5 Lyrics: 1 And did the holy and the just,
The sovereign of the skies,
Stoop down to wretchedness and dust,
That guilty man might rise?
2 Yes, the Redeemer left his throne--
His radiant throne on high--
Surprising mercy! love unknown!
To suffer, bleed, and die.
3 To dwell with misery here below,
The Saviour left the skies,
And sank to wretchedness and woe,
That worthless man might rise.
4 He took the dying traitor's place,
And suffered in his stead:
For sinful man--oh, wondrous grace!
For sinful man he bled.
5 O Lord, what heavenly wonders dwell
In thine atoning blood!
By this are sinners saved from hell,
And rebels brought to God. Topics: The Christian System Atonement; The Atoning Blood of Christ

Trost und Kraft aus den Wunden Jesu
Author: J. Heermann Appears in 73 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 53:5 First Line: Jesu Deine heil'ge Wunden Lyrics: 1 Jesu Deine heil'ge Wunden,
Deine Qual und bittern Tod
laß mir geben alle Stunden,
Trost in Leibs- und Seelennoth!
Wenn mir fällt was Arges ein,
laß mich denken Deine Pein:
daß ich Deine Angst und Schmerzen
wohl erweg' in meinem Herzen.
2 Will sich gern in Wollust weiden
mein verderbtes Fleisch und Blut,
laß mich denken, daß Dein Leiden
löschen muß der Höllen Glut.
Dringt der Satan ein zu mir,
hilf, daß ich ihm halte für,
Deiner Wunden Maal und Zeichen,
daß er von nur müsse weichen.
3 Wenn die Welt mich will verführen
auf die breite Sünden-Bahn
woll'st Du mich also regieren,
daß ich alsdann schau an
Deiner Marter Centner-Last,
die Du ausgestanden hast,
daß ich kann in Andacht bleiben,
alle böse Lust vertreiben.
4 Gieb für alles, was mich kränket,
mit aus Deinen Wunden Saft!
Wenn mein Herz hinein sich senket,
do gieb neue Lebens=Kraft.
daß mich stärk' in allem Leid
Deines Trostes Süßigkeit;
weil Du mir Dein Heil erworben,
da Du bist für mich gestorben.
5 laß auf Deinen Tod mich trauen:
o mein Gott und Zuversicht,
laß mich feste daruaf bauen,
daß den Tod ich schmecke nicht.
Deine Todes-Angst laß mich
stets erquicken mächtiglich:
Herr, laß Deinen Tod mir geben
Auferstehung, Heil und Leben.
6 Jesu Deine heil'ge Wunden,
Deine Qual und bittern Tod,
laß mir geben alle Stunden
Trost in Leibs- und Seelennoth.
Sonderlich am letzten End,
hilf, daß ich mich zu Dir wend',
Trost in Deinen Wunden finde,
und denn fröhlich übersinde. Topics: Vom Leiden, Sterben und Begräbniß unsers Herrn Jesu Christi; Suffering, Dying and Burial of Christ Text Sources: Ex manauoli D. Augustini
