Author: Henry Ernest Hardy (1869-1946) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #148b (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O dearest Lord, thy sacred head
with thorns was pierced for me;
O pour thy blessing on my head
that I may think for thee.
2 O dearest Lord, thy sacred hands
with nails were pierced for me;
O shed thy blessing on my hands
that they may work for thee.
3 O dearest Lord, thy sacred feet
with nails were pierced for me;
O pour thy blessing on my feet
that they may follow thee.
4 O dearest Lord, thy sacred heart
with spear was pierced for me;
O pour thy Spirit in my heart
that I may live for thee. Topics: Blessing; Church year Passiontide; Church Year Good Friday; Dévotion; Discipleship; Passiontide; Self-offering Scripture: Deuteronomy 6:4-5 Languages: English Tune Title: NUN DANKET ALL' (GRÄFENBERG)
