How beauteous were the marks divine

Author: Arthur C. Coxe Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #136 (1899) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Conformity to Christ Lyrics: 1 How beauteous were the marks divine That in Thy meekness used to shine, That lit Thy lonely pathway, trod In wondrous love, O Son of God! 2 Oh! who like Thee, so calm, so bright, So pure, so made to live in light? Oh! who like Thee did ever go So patient through a world of woe? 3 E'en death, which sets the prisoner free, Was pang, and scoff, and scorn to Thee; Yet love through all Thy torture glowed, And mercy with Thy life-blood flowed. 4 Oh, in Thy light be mine to go, Illuming all this way of woe! And give me ever on the road To trace Thy footsteps, Son of God! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: COMMUNION

Go to dark Gethsemane

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #240 (1899) Topics: Conformity to Christ Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the tempter's power; 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 suffering, 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! Saviour, teach us so to rise. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: PILOT
