The Head that once was crown'd with thorns
Oft As The Leper's Case I Read
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 34 hymnals First Line: Oft as the leper’s case I read Lyrics:
1 Oft as the leper’s case I read,
My own described I feel;
Sin is a leprosy indeed,
Which none but Christ can heal.
2 Awhile I would have passed for well,
And strove my spots to hide;
Till it broke out incurable,
Too plain to be denied.
3 Then from the saints I sought to flee,
And dreaded to be seen;
I thought they all would point at me,
And cry, "Unclean, unclean!"
4 What anguish did my soul endure,
Till hope and patience ceased?
The more I strove myself to cure,
The more the plague increased.
5 While thus I lay distressed, I saw
The Savior passing by;
To Him, though filled with shame and awe,
I raised my mournful cry.
6 "Lord, Thou canst heal me if Thou wilt,
For Thou canst all things do;
O cleanse my leprous soul from guilt,
My filthy heart renew!"
7 He heard, and with a gracious look,
Pronounced the healing word,
"I will, be clean." And while He spoke
I felt my health restored.
8 Come lepers, seize the present hour,
The Savior’s grace to prove;
He can relieve, for He is power,
He will, for He is love.

In Christ There is No East or West

In Him no South or North;
But one great fellowship of Love
Throughout the whole wide earth.

Their high communion find;
His service is the golden cord
Close-binding all mankind.

Whate'er your race may be:
Who serves my Father as a son
Is surely kin to Me.

In Him meet South and North;
All Christly souls are one in Him
Throughout the whole wide earth. Topics: Choral Section Church of Christ Used With Tune: NOTTINGHAM (ST. MAGNUS)

O Very God of Very God
Author: John Mason Neale Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 51 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O very God of very God,
And very Light of Light,
Whose feet this earth's dark valley trod,
That so it might be bright!
2 Our hopes are weak, our fears are strong,
Thick darkness binds our eyes;
Cold is the night, and O we long
For Thee, our Sun, to rise!
3 And even now, though dull and gray,
The east is brightening fast,
And kindling to the perfect day
That never shall be past.
4 O guide us till our path be done,
And we have reached the shore
Where Thou, our everlasting Sun,
Art shining evermore!
5 We wait in faith, and turn our face
To where the daylight springs,
Till Thou shalt come our gloom to chase,
With healing on Thy wings.
Amen.

O Very God of Very God
According to Thy gracious word
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 565 hymnals Lyrics:
According to thy gracious word,
In meek humility,
This will I do, my dying Lord,
I will remember thee.
Thy Body, broken for my sake,
My bread from heaven shall be;
The cup, thy precious Blood, I take,
And thus remember thee.
Gethsemane, can I forget?
Or there thy conflict see,
Thine agony and bloody sweat.
And not remember thee?
When to the cross I turn mine eyes,
And rest on Calvary,
O Lamb of God, my sacrifice,
I must remember thee.
And when these failing lips grow dumb,
And mind and memory flee,
When thou shalt in thy kingdom come,
Then, Lord, remember me.
Amen.
