When in Our Music God Is Glorified
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 10.10.10.4 Appears in 84 hymnals Scripture: Mark 14:26 Lyrics: 1 When in our music God is glorified,
and adoration leaves no room for pride,
it is as though the whole creation cried,
"Alleluia!"
2 How often, making music, we have found
a new dimension in the world of sound,
as worship moved us to a more profound
alleluia!
3 So has the church, in liturgy and song,
in faith and love, through centuries of wrong,
borne witness to the truth in every tongue:
alleluia!
4 And did not Jesus sing a psalm that night
when utmost evil strove against the Light?
Then let us sing, for whom he won the fight:
alleluia!
5 Let every instrument be tuned for praise!
Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise!
And may God give us faith to sing always,
"Alleluia!"

'Tis Midnight, and on Olive's Brow
Author: William B. Tappan Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 638 hymnals Scripture: Mark 14:26-42 Lyrics: 1 ’Tis midnight, and on Olive’s brow
the star is dimmed that lately shone;
’tis midnight, in the garden now
the suffering Savior prays alone.
2 ’Tis midnight, and from all removed,
the Savior wrestles lone with fears;
e’en that disciple whom he loved
heeds not the Savior’s grief and tears.
3 ’Tis midnight, and for others’ guilt
the Man of Sorrows weeps in blood;
yet he that has in anguish knelt
is not forsaken by his God.
4 ’Tis midnight, and from heavenly plains
is borne the song that angels know;
unheard by mortals are the strains
that sweetly soothe the Savior’s woe. Topics: God Known in Jesus Christ Suffering and Death; Christian Year: Holy Week; Jesus Christ; Jesus Christ: Cross; Jesus Christ: Suffering Used With Tune: OLIVE'S BROW

According to thy gracious word
Author: James Montgomery (1771-1854) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 548 hymnals Scripture: Mark 14:12-40 Lyrics: 1 According to thy gracious word
in meek humility,
this will I do, my dying Lord,
I will remember thee.
2 Thy body, broken for my sake,
my bread from heaven shall be;
thy cup of blessing I will take,
and thus remember thee.
3 Can I Gethsemane forget
or there thy conflict see,
thine agony and bloody sweat,
and not remember thee?
4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes,
and rest on Calvary,
O Lamb of God, my sacrifice,
I must remember thee:
5 Remember thee, and all thy pains,
and all thy love to me;
yea, while a breath, a pulse remains,
will I remember thee.
6 And when these failing lips grow dumb,
and mind and memory flee,
when thou shalt in thy kingdom come,
then, Lord, remember me. Topics: Church year Passiontide; Church Year Good Friday; Holy Communion; Jesus Names and images for Used With Tune: BANGOR

This Is the Night
Author: Peter Abélard; Richard Lyman Sturch Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Mark 14:10-72; 15 First Line: This is the night, dear friends, the night for weeping Lyrics: 1 This is the night, dear friends, the night for weeping,
when powers of darkness overcome the day,
the night the faithful mourn the weight of evil
whereby our sins the Son of Man betray.
2 This night the traitor, wolf within the sheepfold,
betrays himself into his victim’s will,
the Lamb of God for sacrifice preparing:
sin brings about the cure for sin’s own ill.
3 This night Christ institutes his holy supper,
blest food and drink for heart and soul and mind;
this night injustice joins its hand to treason’s,
and buys the ransom-price of humankind.
4 This night the Lord by slaves shall be arrested,
he who destroys our slavery to sin;
accused of crime, to criminals be given,
that judgment on the righteous Judge begin.
5 O make us sharers, Savior, of your Passion,
that we may share your glory that shall be;
let us pass through these three dark nights of sorrow
to Easter’s laughter and its liberty. Topics: Christian Year Palm Sunday; Christian Year Maundy Thursday; Christian Year Good Friday; Jesus Christ Passion and Death Used With Tune: MY NEIGHBOR

Ye wretched sons of men draw near
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Mark 14 Lyrics: 1 Ye wretched sons of men draw near,
The cries and groans of Jesus hear;
Come see the blessed lamb of God,
There shedding of his precious Blood,
2 Behold him wounded scourg'd & bruis'd
Mock'd, and slander'd, and abus'd;
O hear his cries upon the tree:
Why hath my God forsaken me!
3 His pain, his anguish, and distress,
No heart can feel, no tongue express;
When all the powers of Hell broke in,
And Christ bore all the weight of sin.
4 When Jesus to the Cross was nail'd,
The Sun was all in darkness vail'd;
The Rocks were rent when Jesus cried!
The earth was shaken when he died.
5 The heavens their black curtains drew,
Such mournful scenes they could not view;
It was too much for human eye,
To see the King of Glory die.
6 How dark and awful was the day,
When Jesus died to take away;
Our curse and punishment and pain,
For which he died and rose again. Topics: Good Friday
Ye wretched sons of men draw near
