Christ our example

How mild! how ready to forgive! Be this the temper of our mind, And these the rules by which we live. 3 To do his heavenly Father's will, Was his employment and delight; Humility and holy zeal Shone through his life divinely bright! 4 Dispensing good where'er he came, The labors of his life were love; If we regard the Saviour's name, Let his divine example move. 5 But ah how blind! how weak we are! How frail! how apt to turn aside! Lord, we depend upon thy care, And ask thy spirit for our guide. 6 Thy fair example may we trace, To teach us what we ought to be; Make us by thy transforming grace, Dear Saviour, daily more like thee. Scripture: John 13:15

As on the cross the Saviour hung

Thou spotless Lamb of God! I see thee bath'd in sweat and tears, And weltering in thy blood. 4 "Yet quickly, from these scenes of wo In triumph thou shalt rise, Burst through the gloomy shades of death, And shine above the skies. 5 "Amid the glories of that world, Dear Saviour, think on me, And in the vict'ries of thy death, Let me a sharer be." 6 His prayer the dying Jesus hears, And instantly replies, "To-day thy parting soul shall be With me in Paradise." Scripture: Luke 23:42
