A Blood Red Rose Reminds Us Still
Author: Daniel Charles Damon Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: John 1:19-42 Lyrics: 1 A blood red rose reminds us still
of one who faced a waiting grave
with faith and hope on that green hill,
whose love still comes to heal and save.
2 We pray to one who understands
the heavy cross that we now bear,
for one brief day in Roman hands
a thorny crown he had to wear.
3 God grieves with us in every loss,
for joys cut short when help comes late,
and Jesus, dying on the cross,
spoke words of pardon, not of hate.
4 A blood red rose was gently laid
in Joseph's new and waiting tomb.
This gracious gift in love was made,
for love is in eternal bloom.
5 So come and place your flowers here
upon the altar in this room,
and sweep away the hate and fear
till love comes leaping from the tomb. Topics: All Saints' Day; Comfort; Freedom-Liberation; Good Friday; Grief; Hope; Promise Used With Tune: FIFTY-TWO ROSES

The Fulness of Christ
Author: Fawcett Appears in 16 hymnals First Line: A fulness resides Scripture: John 1:16 Lyrics: 1 A fulness resides
In Jesus our head,
And ever abides
To answer our need;
The Father's good pleasure
Has laid up in store,
A plentiful treasure
To give to the poor.
2 Whate'er be our wants,
We need not to fear;
Our num'rous complaints
His mercy will hear:
His fulness shall yield us
Abundant supplies;
His power shall shield us
When dangers arise.
3 The fountain o'erflows
Our woes to redress,
Still more he bestows,
And grace upon grace:
His gifts in abundance
We daily receive;
He has a redundance
For all that believe.
4 Whatever distress
Awaits us below,
Such plentiful grace
Will Jesus bestow,
As still shall support us,
And silence our fear;
For nothing can hurt us
While Jesus is near.
5 When troubles attend,
Our danger or strife,
His love will defend
And guard us thro' life;
And when we are fainting,
And ready to die,
Whatever is wanting,
His hand will supply. Topics: The Fulness and Riches of Christ; Fulness of Christ

a reed in his right hand;
before the soldiers’ spite and scorn
I see my Savior stand.
He bears between the Roman guard
the weight of all our woe;
a stumbling figure, bowed and scarred,
I see my Savior go.
2 He hangs, by whom the world was made,
beneath the darkened sky;
the everlasting ransom paid,
I see my Savior die.
He shares on high his Father’s throne,
who once in mercy came;
for all his love to sinners shown
I sing my Savior’s name. Used With Tune: A PURPLE ROBE
