At the Cross her station keeping

Meter: 8.8.7 D Appears in 133 hymnals Topics: The Christian Year Good Friday Lyrics: 1 At the Cross her station keeping, Stood the mournful Mother weeping, Close to Jesus at the last. Through her soul, of joy bereavèd, Bowed with anguish, deeply grieved, Now at lengthy the sword hath passed. 2 *O, that blessèd one, grief-laden, Blessèd Mother, blessèd Maiden, Mother of the all-holy One; O that silent, ceaseless mourning, O those dim eyes, never turning From that wondrous, suffering Son. 3 Who on Christ's dear Mother gazing, In her trouble so amazing, Born of woman, would not weep? Who on Christ's dear Mother thinking, Such a cup of sorrow drinking, Would not share her sorrow deep? 4 For his people's sins, in anguish, There she saw the victim languish, Bleed in torments, bleed and die: Saw the Lord's anointed taken; Saw her Child in death forsaken, Heard his last expiring cry. 5 In the Passion of my Maker, Be my sinful soul partaker, May I bear with her my part; Of his Passion bear the token, In a spirit bowed and broken Bear his death within my heart. 6 *May his wounds both wound and heal me, He enkindle, cleanse, anneal me, Be his Cross my hope and stay. May he, when the mountains quiver, From that flame which burns for ever Shield me on the judgement day. 7 Jesu, may thy Cross defend me, And thy saving death befriend me, Cherished by thy deathless grace; When to dust my dust returneth, Grant a soul that to thee yearneth In thy Paradise a place.
