O Sacred Head Surrounded

Author: Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091-1153; Henry Baker, 1821-1877 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 95 hymnals Topics: Shepherd Lyrics: 1 O Sacred Head surrounded By crown of piercing thorn! O bleeding Head, so wounded, Reviled and put to scorn! The pow'r of death comes o'er you, The glow of life decays, Yet angel hosts adore you, And tremble as they gaze. 2 I see your strength and vigor All fading in the strife, And death with cruel rigor, Bereaving you of life; O agony and dying! O love to sinners free! Jesus, all grace supplying, O turn your face on me. 3 In this, your bitter passion, Good Shepherd, think of me With your most sweet compassion, Unworthy though I be: Beneath your cross abiding For ever would I rest, In your dear love confiding, And with your presence blest. Scripture: John 19 Used With Tune: PASSION CHORALE

Seymour, 1789-1870 Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Jesus (See also Christ) Shepherd Lyrics: 1 Jesus, immortal King, arise; Assert Thy rightful away, Till earth, subdued, its tribute brings, And distant lands obey. 2 Ride forth, victorious Conqueror, ride, Till all Thy foes submit, And all the powers of hell resign Their trophies at Thy feet. 3 Send forth Thy word, and let it fly The spacious earth around, Till every soul beneath the sky Shall hear the joyful sound. 4 O may the great Redeemer's name Through very clime be known! And heathen gods, forsaken, fall, And Jesus reign alone. 5 From sea to sea, from shore to shore, Be Thou, O Christ, adored! And earth, with all her millions, shout, Hosannas to the Lord.

I Have Found a Friend In Jesus

Meter: Irregular Appears in 436 hymnals Topics: Jesus, Our Shepherd Lyrics: 1 I have found a friend in Jesus, He's everything to me, He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul; The "Lily of the Valley," In Him alone I see All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole. In sorrow He's my comfort, in trouble He's my stay, He tells me every care on Him to roll; He's the "Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star," He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul. 2 He all my griefs has taken And all my sorrows borne, In temptation He's my strong and mighty tower; I have all for Him forsaken, And all my idols torn From my heart, and now He keeps me by His power. Though all the world forsake me, And Satan tempts me sore, Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal; He's the "Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star," He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul. 3 He will never, never leave me, Nor yet forsake me here, While I live by faith and do His blessed will; A wall of fire about me, I've nothing now to fear, With His manna He my hungry soul shall fill. Then sweeping up to glory To see His blessed face, Where rivers of delight shall ever roll; He's the "Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star," He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul. AMEN. Used With Tune: SONG OF SOLOMON-2 1
