I saw One hanging on a tree
Author: Newton Hymnal: BW1870 #129 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Person Name: Newton Lyrics: 1 I saw One hanging on a tree,
In agony and blood;
Who fixed His languid eyes on me,
As near the cross I stood.
2 Sure, never, till my latest breath,
Can I forget that look:
It seem'd to charge me with His death
Though not a word He spoke.
3 Alas! I knew not what I did--
But now my tears are vain;
Where shall my trembling soul be hid,
For I the Lord have slain!
4 A second look He gave, that said,
"I freely all forgive:
This blood is for thy ransom paid;
I die that thou may'st live."
5 Thus while His death my sin displays
In all its blackest hue,
Such is the mystery of grace,
It seals my pardon too! Topics: Atonement; Christ Sufferings and Death; Christ Redeemer of mankind; Crucifixion of Christ; Lord's Supper; Love Of Christ; Passion of Christ; Redeemer; Redemption; Salvation Through Christ Languages: English
I saw One hanging on a tree
Rock of Ages! cleft for me
Author: Toplady Hymnal: BW1870 #310 (1870) Person Name: Toplady Lyrics: 1 Rock of Ages! cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee!
Let the Water and the Blood,
From Thy riven side that flowed,
Be of sin the double cure;
Save me, Lord, and make me pure.
2 Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill Thy Law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone:
Thou must save, and Thou alone!
3 Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress;
Helpless, look to Thee for grace;
Foul, I to the Fountain fly;
Wash me, Saviour, or I die!
4 While I draw this fleeting breath,
When mine eyelids close in death,
When I soar through tracts unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgment throne,--
Rock of Ages! cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee! Topics: Faith Justification by; Faith In Christ; Forgiveness Of Sin; Justification by Faith; Pardon; Rock of Ages; Salvation By faith; Union of Christians with Christ Languages: English

Christians and brethren! ere we part
Author: H. K. White Hymnal: BW1870 #597 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Person Name: H. K. White Lyrics: 1 Christians and brethren! ere we part,
Join ev'ry voice and ev'ry heart;
One solemn hymn to God we'll raise,
One final song of grateful praise.
2 Christians! we here may meet no more,
But there is yet a happier shore;
And there, released from toil and pain,
Dear brethren, we shall meet again.
3 Now to our God, the Three in One,
Be everlasting glory done;
Raise ye, His saints, the sound again,
Ye nations join the loud Amen. Topics: Parting Hymns; Worship closing of Languages: English
