'Twas for our sake eternal God

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.LXIX.II (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 6 'Twas for our sake, eternal God, Thy Son sustain'd that heavy load Of base reproach and sore disgrace, While shame defil'd his sacred face. 7 The Jews his brethren and his kin, Abus'd the man that check'd their sin; While he fulfill'd thy holy laws, They hate him, but without a cause. 8 ["My Father's house," said he, "was made "A place for worship, not for trade;" Then scatt'ring all their gold and brass, He scourg'd the merchants from the place.] 9 [Zeal for the temple of his God Consum'd his life, expos'd his blood; Reproaches at thy glory thrown, He felt and mourn'd them as his own.] 10 [His friends forsook, his follow'rs fled, While foes and arms surround his head; They curse him with a sland'rous tongue, And the false judge maintains the wrong.] 11 His life they load with hateful lies, And charge his lips with blasphemies; They nail him to the shameful tree: There hung the Man that dy'd for me. 12 But God beheld, and from his throne Marks out the men that hate his Son; The hand that rais'd him from the dead, Shall pour the vengeance on their head.

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6972 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. ’Twas for Thy sake, eternal God, Thy Son sustained that heavy load Of base reproach and sore disgrace, And shame defiled His sacred face. 2. The Jews, His brethren and His kin, Abused the Man that checked their sin; While He fulfilled Thy holy laws, They hate Him, but without a cause. 3. My Father’s house, said He, was made A place for worship, not for trade; Then scattering all their gold and brass, He scourged the merchants from the place. 4. Zeal for the temple of His God Consumed His life, exposed His blood; Reproaches at Thy glory thrown He felt, and mourned them as His own. 5. His friends forsook, His followers fled, While foes and arms surround His head; They curse Him with a slanderous tongue, And the false judge maintains the wrong. 6. His life they load with hateful lies, And charge His lips with blasphemies; They nail Him to the shameful tree: There hung the Man that died for me. 7. Wretches with hearts as hard as stones Insult His piety and His groans; Gall was the food they gave Him there, And mocked His thirst with vinegar. 8. But God beheld, and from His throne Marks out the men that hate His Son; The hand that raised Him from the dead, Shall pour the vengeance on their head. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CRISPIN
