Why Do We Mourn Departing Friends
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 522 hymnals Scripture: Mark 5:39 Lyrics: 1 Why do we mourn departing friends
Or shake at death’s alarms?
’Tis but the voice that Jesus sends
To call them to His arms.
2 Are we not tending upward, too,
As fast as time can move?
Nor would we wish the hours more slow
To keep us from our Love.
3 Why should we tremble to convey
Their bodies to the tomb?
There the dear flesh of Jesus lay
And scattered all the gloom.
4 The graves of all His saints He blest
And softened ev'ry bed.
Where should the dying members rest
But with the dying Head?
5 Thence He arose, ascending high,
And showed our feet the way.
Up to the Lord, we, too, shall fly,
At the great rising-day.
6 Then let the last loud trumpet sound
And bid our kindred rise:
Awake, ye nations under ground!
Ye saints, ascend the skies!
Amen. Topics: The Last Things Death and Burial Used With Tune: DOMINE, CLAMAVI
Why Do We Mourn Departing Friends
Beneath the Cross of Jesus
Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane, 1830-1869 Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 522 hymnals Scripture: Mark 5:25 Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus
I fain would take my stand,
The shadow of a mighty rock
Within a weary land;
A home within the wilderness,
A rest upon the way,
From the burning of the noontide heat,
And the burden of the day.
2 Upon that cross of Jesus
Mine eye at times can see
The very dying form of One
Who suffered there for me;
And from my stricken heart with tears
Two wonders I confess:
The wonders of his redeeming love
And my unworthiness.
3 I take, O cross, thy shadow
For my abiding place;
I ask no other sunshine than
The sunshine of His face;
Content to let the world go by,
To know no gain nor loss,
My sinful self my only shame,
My glory all the cross. Topics: Jesus Christ Suffering and Death; Cross; Jesus Passion Used With Tune: ST. CHRISTOPHER

Behold the Savior of Mankind
Author: Samuel Wesley, 1662-1735 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 387 hymnals Scripture: Mark 5:25 Lyrics: 1 Behold the Savior of mankind
Nailed to the shameful tree!
How vast the love that Him inclined
To bleed and die for thee!
2 Hark, how He groans, while nature shakes,
And earth's strong pillars bend!
The temple's veil in sunder breaks;
The solid marbles rend.
3 'Tis done! the precious ransom's paid!
"Receive my soul!" He cries;
See where He bows His sacred head!
He bows His head and dies!
4 But soon He'll break death's envious chain,
And in full glory shine;
O Lamb of God, was ever pain,
Was ever love, like Thine?
Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ Suffering and Death; Cross; Jesus Passion Used With Tune: ELIZABETHTOWN

Jesus, the name high over all
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 299 hymnals Scripture: Mark 5:12 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the name high over all,
in hell, or earth, or sky;
angels and mortals prostrate fall,
and devils fear and fly,
and devils fear and fly.
2 Jesus, the name to sinners dear,
the name to sinners giv'n;
it scatters all their guilty fear,
it turns their hell to heaven,
it turns their hell to heaven.
3 Jesus, the pris'ner's fetters breaks,
and bruises Satan's head;
pow'r into strengthless souls he speaks,
and life into the dead,
and life into the dead.
4 O, that the world might taste and see
the riches of his grace!
The arms of love that compass me,
hold all the human race,
hold all the human race.
5 His only righteousness I show,
his saving truth proclaim;
'tis all my business here below
to cry, 'Behold the Lamb!'
to cry, 'Behold the Lamb!'
6 Happy, if with my latest breath
I may but gasp his name;
preach him to all, and cry in death:
'Behold, behold the Lamb!'

Author: Frederick W. Faber, 1814-1863 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 216 hymnals Scripture: Mark 5:25 Lyrics: 1 O come and mourn with me awhile;
O come ye to the Savior's side;
O come, together let us mourn:
Jesus, our Love, is crucified!
2 Have we no tears to shed for Him,
While soldiers scoff and foes deride?
Ah! Look how patiently He hangs:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified!
3 Seven times He spake seven words of love;
And all three hours His silence cried
For mercy on the souls of men:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified!
4 O love of God! O sin of man!
In this dread act your strength is tried;
And victory remains with love:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified! Topics: Jesus Christ Suffering and Death; Cross; Jesus Passion Used With Tune: ST. CROSS
