In the Cross of Christ I glory

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: LHTC1918 #62b (1917) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Tune Title: RATHBUN Lyrics: 1 In the Cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. 2 When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive and fears annoy, Never shall the Cross forsake me; Lo! it glows with peace and joy. 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the Cross the radiance streaming Adds more luster to the day. 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the Cross are sanctified; Peace is there that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Lent Languages: English

O could I speak the matchless worth

Author: Samuel Medley Hymnal: LHTC1918 #309 (1917) Tune Title: RAVENDALE Lyrics: 1 O could I speak the matchless worth, O, could I sound the glories forth Which in my Saviour shine, I'd soar and touch the heavenly strings, And vie with Gabriel, while he sings In notes almost divine. 2 I'd sing the precious blood He spilt, My ransom from the dreadful guilt Of sin and wrath divine: I'd sing His glorious righteousness, In which all-perfect heavenly dress My soul shall ever shine. 3 I'd sing the characters He bears, And all the forms of love He wears, Exalted on His throne: In loftiest songs of sweetest praise, I would to everlasting days Make all His glories known. 4 Soon the delightful day will come, When my dear Lord will bring me home, And I shall see His face: Then with my Saviour, Brother, Friend, A blest eternity I'll spend, Triumphant in His grace. Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer, Praise and Thanksgiving Languages: English

O the pangs His soul sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; Learn of Him to bear the cross. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at His feet, Mark that miracle of time, God's own Sacrifice complete: "It is finished," hear Him cry; Learn of Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb Where they laid His breathless clay; All is solitude and gloom; Who hath taken Him away?
