"Stricken, smitten, and afflicted"

Author: Thomas Kelly Appears in 87 hymnals Lyrics: 1 "Stricken, smitten, and afflicted," See Him dying on the tree! 'Tis the Christ by man rejected; Yes, my soul, 'tis He, 'tis He! Mark the Sacrifice appointed! See who bears the awful load; 'Tis the Word, the Lord's Anointed, Son of man, and Son of God. 2 Tell me, ye who hear Him groaning, Was there ever grief like His? Friends through fear His cause disowning, Foes insulting His distress; Many hands were raised to wound Him, None would interpose to save; But the deepest stroke that pierced Him Was the stroke that Justice gave. 3 Here we have a firm foundation; Here the refuge of the lost; Christ's the Rock of our salvation: His the name of which we boast: Lamb of God, for sinners wounded! Sacrifice to cancel guilt! None shall ever be confounded Who on Him their hope have built. Amen.

There is a fountain filled with blood

Author: William Cowper Appears in 2,474 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Immanuel's veins, And sinners plunged beneath that flood Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains. 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day; And there have I, though vile as he, Washed all my sins away, Washed all my sins away. 3 Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed church of God Be saved, to sin no more, Be saved to sin no more. 4 E'er since by faith, I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die, And shall be till I die. 5 Then in a nobler, sweeter song, I'll sing Thy power to save, When this poor lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave, Lies silent in the grave. Amen. Topics: Atonement Sufficient; Christ Fountain; Faith Justification by; Lent; Salvation By faith Used With Tune: COWPER

Go to dark Gethsemane

Author: James Montgomery Appears in 506 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the tempter's power; Your Redeemer's conflict see, Watch with Him one bitter hour; Turn not from His griefs away; Learn of Jesus Christ to pray. 2 Follow to the judgment hall, View the Lord of life arraigned; Oh, the wormwood and the gall! Oh, the pangs His soul sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; Learn of Him to bear the cross. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at His feet, Mark that miracle of time, God's own sacrifice complete: "It is finished," hear Him cry: Learn of Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb Where they laid His breathless clay; All is solitude and gloom; Who hath taken Him away? Christ is risen; He meets our eyes! Saviour, teach us so to rise. Amen. Topics: Calvary; Christ Passion of; Conformity to Christ; Gethsemane; Lent Used With Tune: PILOT

'Tis midnight; and on Olive's brow

Author: William B. Tappan Appears in 641 hymnals Lyrics: 1 'Tis midnight; and on Olive's brow The star is dimmed that lately shown: 'Tis midnight; in the garden now The suffering Saviour prays alone. 2 'Tis midnight; and from all removed, Immanuel wrestles lone, with fears; E'en the disciple that He loved Heeds not his Master's grief and tears. 3 'Tis midnight; and, for others' guilt, The Man of Sorrows weeps in blood; Yet He that hath in anguish knelt Is not forsaken by His God. 4 'Tis midnight; and from ether-plains Is borne the song that angels know: Unheard by mortals are the strains That sweetly soothe the Saviour's woe.

Alas! and did my Saviour bleed

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 2,305 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Saviour bleed, And did my Sovereign die? Would He devote that sacred head For such a worm as I? 2 Was it for crimes that I have done, He groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity! grace unknown! And love beyond degree! 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut his glories in, When Christ, the mighty Maker, died For man the creature's sin! 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face While His dear cross appears; Dissolve my heart in thankfulness, And melt my eyes to tears. 5 But drops of tears can ne'er repay The debt of love I owe; Here, Lord, I give myself away, 'Tis all that I can do.

Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine. 2 How art Thou pale with anguish, With sore abuse and scorn; How does that visage languish Which once was bright as morn! What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered, Was all for sinners' gain; Mine, mine was the transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. 3 What language shall I borrow To thank Thee, dearest Friend, For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end? Lord, make me Thine for ever, Nor let me faithless prove; Oh, let me never, never Abuse such dying love! 4 Forbid that I should leave Thee; O Jesus, leave not me; By faith I would receive Thee; Thy blood can make me free; When strength and comfort languish, And I must hence depart, Release me then from anguish, By Thine own wounded heart.

When I survey the wondrous cross

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 1,997 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ my God! All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to His blood. 3 See, from His head, His hands, His feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down! Did e'er such love and sorrow meet! Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all. Amen.

Sweet the moments, rich in blessing

Author: Walter Shirley Appears in 823 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing, Which before the cross I spend; Life and health and peace possessing, From the sinner's dying Friend. Love and grief my heart dividing, With my tears his feet I'd bathe; Constant still in faith abiding, Life deriving from His death, Life deriving from His death. 2 Truly blessèd is this station-- Low before His cross to lie; While I see divine compassion Beaming in His gracious eye. Here I'll sit, forever viewing Mercy streaming in His blood: Precious drops, my soul bedewing, Plead and claim my peace with God, Please and claim my peace with God. Amen.

Arise, my soul, arise
