Go to dark Gethsemane

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #331 (1886) Topics: Christ Sufferings and Death Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the tempter's power; Your Redeemer's conflict see, Watch with him one bitter hour; Turn not from his griefs away, Learn of Jesus how to pray. 2 Follow to the judgment-hall; View the Lord of life arraigned; O, the wormwood and the gall! O, the pangs his soul sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; Learn of him to bear the cross. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at his feet, Mark that miracle of time, God's own sacrifice complete: "It is finished!" hear him cry; Learn of Jesus how to die.

Stretch'd on the cross, the Saviour dies

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #125 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ Sufferings and Death Lyrics: 1 Stretch'd on the cross, the Saviour dies, Hark! his expiring groans arise! See, from his hands, his feet, his side, Runs down the sacred crimson tide! 2 But life attends the dreadful sound, And flows from every bleeding wound; The vital stream, how free it flows To save and cleanse his rebel foes! 3 To suffer in the traitor's place, To die for man, surprising grace! Yet pass rebellious angels by-- O why for man, dear Saviour, why? 4 And didst thou bleed?--for sinners bleed? And could the sun behold the deed? No! he withdrew his sickening ray, And darkness veil'd the mourning day. 5 Can I survey this scene of wo, Where mingling grief and wonder flow; And yet my heart unmov'd remain, Insensible to love or pain? 6 Come, dearest Lord! thy grace impart, To warm this cold, this stupid heart; Till all its powers and passions move In melting grief and ardent love.

There Is a Green Hill Far Away

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander, 1823-1895 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #132 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Jesus Christ Suffering and Death Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away, Without a city wall, Where the dear Lord was crucified, Who died to save us all. 2 We may not know, we cannot tell, What pains He had to bear; But we believe it was for us He hung and suffered there. 3 He died that we might be forgiven, He died to make us good, That we might go at last to heaven, Saved by His precious blood. 4 There was no other good enough To pay the price of sin; He only could unlock the gate Of heaven, and let us in. 5 O dearly, dearly has He loved, And we must love Him, too, And trust in His redeeming blood, And try His works to do. Scripture: Hebrews 13:12 Languages: English Tune Title: HORSLEY

Alas! and did my Saviour bleed

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #133 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christ Sufferings and Death Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Savior bleed, And did my Sov'reign die! Would he devote that sacred head For such a worm as I? 2 Was it for crimes that I have done, He groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity! grace unknown! And love beyond degree! 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide, And shut its glories in, When God the mighty Maker died, For man the creature's sin! 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face, While his dear cross appears; Dissolve my heart in thankfulness, And melt mine eyes to tears. 5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay The debt of love I owe. Here, Lord, I give myself away: 'Tis all that I can do.

Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine. 2 What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered Was all for sinners’ gain; Mine, mine was the transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. Lo, here I fall, my Savior! ’Tis I deserve Thy place; Look on me with Thy favor, Vouchsafe to me Thy grace. 3 What language shall I borrow To thank Thee, dearest Friend, For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end? O make me Thine forever; And should I fainting be, Lord, let me never, never Outlive my love to Thee. Amen. Scripture: Matthew 27:29 Languages: English Tune Title: PASSION CHORALE

I left, I left it all for thee, Hast thou left aught for Me? 3 I suffered much for thee, More than thy tongue can tell, Of bitterest agony, To rescue thee from hell; I've borne, I've borne it all for thee, What hast thou borne for Me? I've borne, I've borne it all for thee, What hast thou borne for Me? 4 And I have brought to thee, Down from My home above, Salvation full and free, My pardon and My love; I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, What hast thou brought to Me? I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, What hast thou brought to Me? Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:15 Languages: English Tune Title: KENOSIS

Behold th' amazing sight

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #141 (1828) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christ Sufferings and Death Lyrics: 1 Behold th' amazing sight, The Saviour lifted high! Behold the Son of God's delight Expire in agony! 2 For whom, for whom, my heart, Were all these sorrows borne? Why did he feel that piercing smart, And meet that various scorn? 3 For love of us he bled, And all in torture died; 'Twas love that bow'd his fainting head, And op'd his gushing side. 4 In sympathy of love Let all the earth combine; And drawn by cords so gentle, prove The energy divine. 5 In him our hearts unite, Nor share his griefs alone, But from his cross pursue their flight To his triumphant throne.
