Before Your Cross, O Jesus

Author: Ferdinand Q. Blanchard Meter: 7.6.8.6.8.6.8.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 6:14 Lyrics: 1 Before your cross, O Jesus, our lives are judged today; the meaning of our eager strife is tested by your way. Across our restless living the light streams from your cross, and by its clear, revealing beams we measure gain and loss. 2 The hopes that lead us onward, the fears that hold us back, our will to dare great things for God, the courage that we lack, The faith we keep in goodness, our love, as low or pure, on all, the judgment of the cross falls steady, clear, and sure. 3 Yet humbly, in our striving, we rise to face its test. We crave the power to do your will as once you did it best. On us let now the healing of your great Spirit fall, and make us brave and full of joy to answer to your call.

My Redeemer, Overwhelmed

Author: Christian Renatus von Zinzendorf; John Swertner Meter: 10.7.10.7.10.10.7.7 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 6:14 First Line: My Redeemer, overwhelmed with anguish Lyrics: 1 My Redeemer, overwhelmed with anguish, went to Olivet for me; there he kneels, his heart doth heave and languish in a bitter agony; fear and horror seize his soul and senses, for the hour of darkness now commences; ah, how doth he weep and groan our rebellion to atone. 2 Could our hearts and voices then join forces in exalted songs to raise; yet, till joined to the celestial chorus, cold would prove our warmest praise; Jesus’ love exceeds all comprehension, but our love to him we scarce dare mention; we may weep beneath his cross, but he wept and bled for us. 3 Lamb of God, you shall remain forever of our songs the only theme; for Thy boundless love, your grace and favor, we will praise your saving name; that for our transgressions you were wounded shall by us in nobler strains be sounded, when we, perfected in love, once shall join the church above.

The Cross My Boast

Author: Vivian A. Dake Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 6:14 First Line: What have I on earth to boast of Refrain First Line: Jesus hung on Calv’ry’s mountain Lyrics: 1 What have I on earth to boast of? Why are gifts so glorious mine? God and Heav’n am I the heir of; Why dos Thou, Lord, claim me Thine? Refrain: Jesus hung on Calv’ry’s mountain, Cried and groaned, and bled for me, And from out the cleansing fountain Poured the stream that sets me free. 2 Jesus died, the God-life bringing; Jesus wept, my tears to stay; Jesus groaned to give me singing; Bore Hell’s night to give me day. [Refrain] 3 He was poor to give me treasure; He was slave to make me king; He was hated without measure, Heaven’s love to me to bring. [Refrain] 4 Have I joy, ‘twas sorrow bought it; Have I pow’r, or grace, or love, Have I wealth, ‘twas Jesus brought it Down to me from Heav’n above. [Refrain] 5 Hark! I hear mid ev’ry pleasure, Sounds of Calv’ry’s mournful night, And behold by ev’ry treasure, Calv’ry’s cross appears in sight. [Refrain] 6 Where then, where is room for boasting? In the sight of Calv’ry’s cross; In the blood alone I’m trusting, Counting earthly things but loss. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [What have I on earth to boast of]
