At the Cross, Her Station Keeping

Author: Edward Caswall Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #26 Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1. At the cross, her station keeping, Stood the mournful mother weeping, Where He hung, the dying Lord; For her soul of joy bereavèd, Bowed with anguish, deeply grievèd, Felt the sharp and piercing sword. 2. Oh, how sad and sore distressèd Now was she, that mother blessèd Of the sole begotten One; Deep the woe of her affliction, When she saw the crucifixion Of her ever glorious Son. 3. Who, on Christ’s dear mother gazing Pierced by anguish so amazing Born of woman, would not weep? Who, on Christ’s dear mother thinking Such a cup of sorrow drinking Would not share her sorrows deep? 4. For His people’s sins chastisèd, She beheld her Son despisèd, Scourged, and crowned with thorns entwined; Saw Him then from judgment taken, And in death by all forsaken, Till His Spirit He resigned. 5. Jesu, may her deep devotion Stir in me the same emotion, Fount of love, Redeemer kind, That my heart fresh ardor gaining, And a purer love attaining, May with Thee acceptance find.

By the Cross of Jesus Standing

Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #714 Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Lyrics: 1. By the cross of Jesus standing, Love our straitened souls expanding, Taste we now the peace and grace! Health from yonder tree is flowing, Heav’nly light is on it glowing, From the blessed Sufferer’s face. 2. Here is pardon’s pledge and token, Guilt’s strong chain forever broken, Righteous peace securely made; Brightens now the brow once shaded, Freshens now the face once faded, Peace with God now makes us glad. 3. All the love of God is yonder, Love above all thought and wonder, Perfect love that casts out fear! Strength, like dew, is here distilling, Glorious life our souls is filling, Life eternal, only here! 4. Here the living water welleth; Here the Rock, now smitten, telleth Of salvation freely giv’n: This the fount of love and pity, This the pathway to the city, This the very gate of Heav’n.

Father in high Heaven dwelling, May our evening song be telling Of Thy mercy large and free: Through the day Thy love hath fed us, Through the day Thy care hath led us With divinest charity. 2. This day’s sins, O pardon, Savior, Evil thoughts, perverse behavior, Envy, pride, and vanity; From the world, the flesh, deliver, Save us now, and save us ever, O Lamb of Calvary! 3. From enticements of the devil, From the might of spirits evil, Be our shield and panoply: Let Thy pow’r this night defend us, And a heavenly peace attend us, And angelic company. 4. While the night dews are distilling, Holy Ghost, each heart be filling With Thine own serenity: Softly let our eyes be closing Loving souls on Thee reposing, Ever blessèd Trinity.
