Author: H. Ernest Hardy, 1849-1946 Appears in 35 hymnals First Line: O dearest Lord, Thy sacred head Lyrics:
1 O dearest Lord, Thy sacred head
With thorns was pierced for me;
O pour Thy blessing on my head
That I may think of Thee.
2 O dearest Lord, Thy sacred hands
With nails were pierced for me;
O shed Thy blessing on my hands
That they may work for Thee.
3 O dearest Lord, Thy sacred feet
With nails were pierced for me;
O pour Thy blessing on my feet
That they may walk for Thee.
4 O dearest Lord, Thy sacred heart
With spear was pierced for me;
O pour Thy Spirit in my heart
That I may love but Thee.
