To Avert from Us God's Wrath

Author: Martin Luther; Christian Ignatius Latrobe; Dirk French Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 16 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:10-13 Lyrics: 1 To avert from men God’s wrath, Jesus suffered in our stead; by an ignominious death he a full atonement made; and by his most precious blood brought us, sinners, nigh to God. 2 Christ bids each afflicted soul "Come that I may soothe your grief. No one who is strong and whole needs a doctor for relief; therefore have no fear, draw nigh, that your want I may supply." 3 But examine first your case, whether you be in the faith; do you long for pard’ning grace? Is your only hope his death? Then, how e’er your soul’s oppressed, Come, you are a worthy guest. 4 They who Jesus’ mercy knows are from wrath and envy freed; love unto our neighbor shows that we are his flock indeed; thus we may in all our ways show forth our Redeemer’s praise.

Throned upon the Awe-full Tree

Author: John Ellerton Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 67 hymnals Scripture: Mark 15:34 Lyrics: 1 Throned upon the awe-full tree, King of grief, I watch with Thee. Darkness veils Thine anguished face; None its lines of woe can trace, None can tell what pangs unknown Hold Thee silent and alone. 2 Silent thro' those three dread hours, Wrestling with the evil pow'rs, Left alone with human sin, Gloom around Thee and within, Till th'appointed time is nigh, Till the Lamb of God may die. 3 Hark that cry that peals aloud Upward through the whelming cloud! Thou, the Father’s only Son, Thou, His own Anointed One. Thou dost ask Him, Can it be? “Why hast Thou forsaken Me?” 4 Lord, should fear and anguish roll Darkly o’er my sinful soul, Thou, who once wast thus bereft That Thine own might ne’er be left, Teach me by that bitter cry In the gloom to know Thee nigh. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Good Friday Used With Tune: GETHSEMANE
