MHB 187 – O COME and mourn with me awhile;

Methodist-Hymns-187

1: O COME and mourn with me awhile;
O come ye to the Saviour’s side;
O come, together let us mourn:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified.

2: Have we no tears to shed for Him,
While soldiers scoff and Jews deride?
Ah! look how patiently He hangs:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified.

3: How fast His hands and feet are nailed,
His throat with parching thirst is dried!
His failing eyes are dim with woe:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified.

4: Seven times He spoke, seven words of love;
And all three hours His silence cried
For mercy on the souls of men:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified.

5: Come, let us stand beneath the cross;
The fountain opened in His side
Shall purge our deepest stains away:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified.

6: A broken heart, a fount of tears,
Ask, and they will not be denied;
A broken heart love’s cradle is:
Jesus, our Lord, is crucified.

7: O love of God! O sin of man!
In this dread act Your strength is tried;
And victory remains with love:
For He, our Lord, is crucified.
