Behold the Saviour of mankind

Author: S. Wesley, Sr., 1662-1735 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #69 (1917) Topics: Jesus (See also Christ) Crucified Lyrics: 1 Behold the Saviour of mankind Nailed to the shameful tree! How vast the love that Him inclined To bleed and die for thee! 2 Hark, how He groans! while nature shakes, And earth's strong pillars bend; The temple's veil in sunder breaks, The solid marbles rend. 3 'Tis done! the precious ransom's paid; "Receive my soul," He cries! See where He bows His sacred head; He bows His head, and dies. 4 But soon He'll break death's envious chain, And in full glory shine; O Lamb of God! was ever pain, Was ever love, like Thine?

Jesus, Thou Joy of loving hearts!

Author: Dr. Ray Palmer, 1808-1887; Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091-1153 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #70 (1917) Topics: Jesus (See also Christ) Our Joy Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou Joy of loving hearts! Thou Fount of life! thou Light of men! From the best bliss that earth imparts, We turn unfilled to Thee again. 2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood; Thou savest those that on Thee call; To them that seek Thee, Thou art good; To them that find Thee, all in all. 3 We taste Thee, O Thou Living Bread! And long to feast upon Thee still; We drink of Thee, the Fountainhead, And thirst our souls from Thee to fill. 4 Our restless spirits yearn for Thee, Where'er our changeful lot is cast; Glad, when Thy gracious smile we see; Blest, when our faith can hold Thee fast. 5 O Jesus, ever with us stay! Make all our moments calm and bright; Chase the dark night of sin away, Shed o'er the world Thy holy light! Languages: English Tune Title: ROCKINGHAM

Fully absolved through these I am, From sin and fear, from guilt and shame. 3 The holy, meek, unspotted Lamb, Who from the Father's bosom came, Who died for me, even me, to atone, Now for my Lord and God I own. 4 Lord, I believe Thy precious blood, Which, at the mercy-seat of God, For ever doth for sinners plead, For me, even for my soul, was shed. 5 Lord, I believe, were sinners more Than sands upon the ocean shore, Thou hast for all a ransom paid, For all a full atonement made. 6 When from the dust of death I rise To claim my mansion in the skies, Even then, this shall be all my plea, Jesus hath lived, hath died for me.

The winged squadrons of the sky Look down with sad and wondering eyes To see the approaching Sacrifice. 4 Ride on! ride on in majesty! Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh. The Father on His sapphire throne Awaits His own anointed Son. 5 Ride on! ride on in majesty! In lowly pomp ride on to die; Bow Thy meek head to mortal pain; Then take, O God, Thy power, and reign.

He dies, the Friend of sinners dies!

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #137 (1917) Topics: Jesus (See also Christ) Crucified Lyrics: 1 He dies, the Friend of sinners dies! Lo, Salem's daughters weep around, A solemn darkness veils the skies; A sudden trembling shakes the ground. 2 Here's love and grief beyond degree; The Lord of glory dies for man: But lo, what sudden joys I see, Jesus, the dead, revives again! 3 The rising God forsakes the tomb; The tomb in vain forbids His rise; Cherubic legions guard Him home, And shout Him welcome to the skies. 4 Break off your tears, ye saints, and tell How high your great Deliverer reigns; Sing how He spoiled the hosts of hell, And led the monster death in chains. 5 Say, "Live for ever, wondrous King! Born to redeem, and strong to save," Then ask the monster, "Where's thy sting?" And, "Where's thy victory, boasting grave?" Languages: English Tune Title: FEDERAL STREET
