Sweet the Moments, Rich in Blessing

Author: W. Shirley Hymnal: Concordia #77 (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing, Which before the cross we spend; Life, and health, and peace possessing, From the sinner's dying Friend. 2 Truly blessed is this station, Low before His cross to lie, While we see divine compassion Beaming in His gracious eye. 3 For Thy sorrows we adore Thee, For the griefs that wrought our peace; Gracious Savior! we implore Thee, In our souls Thy love increase! 4 Here we feel our sins forgiven, While upon the Lamb we gaze; And our thoughts are all of heaven, And our lips o'erflow with praise. 5 Lord, in loving contemplation, Fix our hearts and eyes on Thee, Till we taste Thy full salvation, And Thine unveiled glory see.

Sacrifice to cancel guilt! None shall ever be confounded Who on Thee their hope have built. Languages: English Tune Title: HJEM JEG LAENGES

O clothe me in the raiment Thy blood hath purified! 3 O hearken to my knocking, And open wide the door, That I may enter freely And never leave Thee more! 4 O give that last, best blessing, That even saints can know, To follow in Thy footsteps Wherever Thou dost go! 5 Not wisdom, might, or glory, I ask to win above; I ask for Thee, Thee only, O Thou eternal Love!

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Concordia #80a (1918) Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of Glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast Save in the death of Christ, my God: All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to His blood. 3 See, from His head, His hands, His feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down! Did e'er such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a tribute far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.

In the Cross of Christ I glory
