MHB 175 – WEEP  not for Him Who onward bears

Methodist-Hymns-175

1: WEEP  not for Him Who onward bears
His cross to Calvary;
He does not ask man’s pitying tears,
Who wills for man to die.

2: The awful sorrow of His face,
The bowing of His frame,
Come not from torture or disgrace:
He fears not cross nor shame.

3:  There is a deeper pang of grief,
An agony unknown,
In which His love finds no relief-
He bears it all alone.

4: He sees the souls for whom He dies
Yet clinging to their sin,
And heirs of mansions in the skies
Who will not enter in.

5: O may I in Thy sorrow share,
And mourn that sins of mine
Should ever wound with grief or care
That loving heart of Thine. Amen.
