O Sacred Head, Sore Wounded
O Sacred Head, Sore Wounded
Author: Paulus Gerhardt. 1607-1676; Robert S. Bridges, 1844-1930; James W. Alexander, 1804, 1859 Hymnal: African American Heritage Hymnal #250 (2001) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: O sacred head sore wounded Lyrics: 1 O sacred head, sore wounded,
Defiled and put to scorn;
O kingly head, surrounded
With mocking crown of thorn:
What sorrow mars Thy grandeur?
Can death Thy bloom deflow'r?
O countenance whose splendor
The hosts of heav'en adore!
2 Thy beauty, long desired,
Hath vanished from our sight;
Thy pow'r is all expired,
And quenched the light of light.
Ah me! for whom Thou diest,
Hide not so far Thy grace:
Show me, O Love most highest,
The brightness of Thy face.
3 In Thy most bitter passion
My heart to share doth cry,
With Thee for my salvation
Upon the cross to die.
Ah, keep my heart thus moved
To stand Thy cross beneath,
To mourn Thee, well-beloved,
Yet thank Thee for Thy death.
4 What language shall I borrow
To thank Thee, dearest friend,
For this Thy dying sorrow,
Thy pity without end?
Oh, make me Thine for ever!
And should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
Outlive my love for Thee.
5 My days are few, O fail not,
With Thine immortal pow'r,
To hold me that I quail not
In death's most fearful hour;
That I may fight befriended,
And see in my last strife
To me Thine arms extended
Upon the cross of life.
