O Christ, our King, Creator, Lord

Author: Ray Palmer, 1808 - 87; St. Gregory, 540 - 604 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #62a (1958) Lyrics: 1 O Christ, our King, Creator, Lord, Saviour of all who trust thy word, To them who seek thee ever near, Now to our praises bend thine ear. 2 In thy dear Cross a grace is found, It flows from every streaming wound, Whose power our inbred sin controls, Breaks the firm bond, and frees our souls. 3 Thou didst create the stars of night, Yet thou hast veiled in flesh thy light, Hast deigned a mortal form to wear, A mortal's painful lot to bear. A-men. 4 When thou didst hang upon the Tree The quaking earth acknowledged thee, When thou didst there yield up thy breath The world grew dark as shades of death. 5 Now in the Father's glory high, Great Conqueror, never more to die, Us by thy mighty power defend, And reign through ages without end.

My song is love unknown

Author: Samuel Crossman, 1624 - 83 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #65 (1958) Lyrics: 1 My song is love unknown, My Saviour’s love to me; Love to the loveless shown That they might lovely be. O who am I, That for my sake My Lord should take Frail flesh, and die? My Lord should take Frail flesh, and die? 2 He came from his blest throne Salvation to bestow; But men made strange, and none The longed-for Christ would know. But O, my friend, My friend indeed, Who at my need His life did spend! Who at my need His life did spend! 3 Sometimes they strew his way And his sweet praises sing; Resounding all the day Hosannas to their king. Then 'Crucify!' Is all their breath, And for his death They thirst and cry. And for his death They thirst and cry. 4 Why, what hath my Lord done? What makes this rage and spite? He made the lame to run, He gave the blind their sight. Sweet injuries! Yet they at these Themselves displease, And 'gainst him rise. Themselves displease, And 'gainst him rise. 5 They rise, and needs will have My dear Lord made away; A murderer they save, The Prince of Life they slay. Yet cheerful he To suffering goes, That he his foes From thence might free. That he his foes From thence might free. 6 Here might I stay and sing, No story so divine; Never was love, dear King, Never was grief like thine. This is my friend, In whose sweet praise I all my days Could gladly spend. I all my days Could gladly spend. Topics: The Church Year Lent Languages: English Tune Title: RHOSYMEDRE

Wide open are thy hands

Author: Charles Porterfield Krauth, 1823 - 83; St. Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091 - 1153 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #66 (1958) Lyrics: 1 Wide open are thy hands, Paying with more than gold The awful debt of guilty men, Forever and of old. Ah, let me grasp those hands, That we may never part, And let the power of their blood Sustain my fainting heart. 2 Wide open are thine arms, A fallen world to embrace; To take to love and endless rest Our whole forsaken race. Lord, I am sad and poor, But boundless is thy grace; Give me the soul-transforming joy For which I seek thy face. 3 Draw all my mind and heart Up to thy throne on high, And let thy sacred Cross exalt My spirit to the sky. To these, thy mighty hands, My spirit I resign; Living, I live alone to thee, Dying, alone am thine. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Lent Languages: English Tune Title: LEOMINSTER

Jesus, Name all names above
