Go to Dark Gethsemane

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #159 (1941) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Scripture: Lamentations 3:19 Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the Tempter's pow'r; Your Redeemer's conflict see, Watch with Him one bitter hour; Turn not from His griefs away, Learn of Jesus Christ to pray. 2 Follow to the judgment-hall, View the Lord of life arraigned; Oh, the wormwood and the gall! Oh, the pangs His soul sustained! Shun not suff'ring, 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 Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb Where they laid His breathless clay; All is solitude and gloom,-- Who hath taken Him away? Christ is risen! He meets our eyes. Savior, teach us so to rise. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Lent Languages: English Tune Title: GETHSEMANE

Christ, Whose Glory Fills the Skies

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Glory to God #662 (2013) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Scripture: Lamentations 3:22-23 Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies; Christ, the true, the only light; Sun of Righteousness, arise; triumph o'er the shades of night; Dayspring from on high, be near; Daystar, in my heart appear. 2 Dark and cheerless is the morn unaccompanied by thee; joyless is the day's return till thy mercy's beams I see; till they inward light impart, cheer my eyes and warm my heart. 3 Visit then this soul of mine; pierce the gloom of sin and grief; fill me, radiancy divine; scatter all my unbelief; more and more thyself display, shining to the perfect day.

My sins might rouse His wrath to flame, And yet His wrath delays. 4 O God, let all my hours be Thine While I enjoy the light, Then shall my sun in smiles decline And bring a pleasant night. Amen.

Sometimes a light surprises

Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: Together in Song #128 (1999) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Scripture: Lamentations 3:19-26 Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises the child of God who sings; it is the Lord who rises with healing in his wings; when comforts are declining, he grants the soul again a season of clear shining to cheer it after rain. 2 In holy contemplation, we joyfully pursue the theme of God’s salvation, and find it ever new. Set free from present sorrow, we cheerfully can say: 'Now let the unknown morrow bring with it what it may: 3 'it can bring with it nothing but God will bear us through; who gives the lilies clothing will clothe his people, too; beneath the spreading heavens no creature but is fed, and he who feeds the ravens will give his children bread.' 4 Though vine nor fig-tree neither their looked-for fruit should bear, though all the field should wither, nor flocks nor herds, be there, yet, God the same abiding, his praise shall tune my voice; for while in him confiding I cannot but rejoice.

Who gives the lilies clothing will clothe the people, too. Beneath the spreading heavens no creature but is fed: the one who feeds the ravens will give the children bread. 4 Though vine and fig tree neither their yearly fruit should bear, though all the fields should wither, nor flocks nor herds be there, yet God, the same abiding, through praise shall tune my voice, for while in love confiding I cannot but rejoice.

Dear Refuge of my weary soul

Author: Steele Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #628 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Lamentations 3:26 Lyrics: 1 Dear Refuge of my weary soul, On thee, when sorrows rise, On thee, when waves of trouble roll, My fainting hope relies. 2 To thee I tell each rising grief, For thou alone canst heal; Thy word can bring a sweet relief For every pain I feel. 3 But, oh! when gloomy doubts prevail, I fear to call thee mine; The springs of comfort seem to fail, And all my hopes decline. 4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust; And still my soul would cleave to thee, Though prostrate in the dust. 5 Thy mercy-seat is open still, Here let my soul retreat, With humble hope attend thy will, And wait beneath thy feet.
