2 Who, who, my Saviour, this bath done Who could thy sacred body wound? No guilt thy spotless heart hath known, No guile hath in thy lips been found. 31, I alone have done the deed! 'Tis I thy sacred flesh bave torn, My sins have caus'd thee, Lord, to bleed; Pointed the nail, and fix'd the thorn. 4 My Saviour, how shall I proclaim ? How pay the mighty debt I owe? Let all I have, and all I am, Ceaseless to all thy glory show. 5 Too much to thee I cannot give : Too much I cannot do for thee, Let all thy love, and all thy grief, Grav'n on my heart for ever be! 6 Still let thy tears, thy groans, thy sighs, O'erflow my eyes, and heave my breast; Till loose from flesh and earth I rise, And ever in thy bosom rest. Hymn 28. L. M. And they that passed by railed on kim, wagging their heads. Mark XV. 29. PART FIRST. 1 Y that pass by, bebold the man! TE The man of griefs condemn'd for you! The Lamb of God for sinners slaio, Weeping to Calvary pursue. 2 See how his back the scourges tear, While to the bloody pillars boned: The ploughers make long furrows there, Till all his body is one wound. 3 See there! his temples crown'd with thorn! His bleeding hands extended wide! His streaming feet transfixt, and torn! The fountain gushing from his side! 4 At thy last gasp the graves display'd Their horrors to the upper skies : Hymn 29. L. M. PART SECOND. How doth thy heart to sinners move; Help me to taste thy dying love! 2 The rocks could feel thy pow'rful death, And tremble, and asunder part: Orend with thy expiring breath The harder marble of my heart! 3 My stony heart thy'voice shall rent, 'Thou wilt, I trust, the veil remove; My utmost bowels shall relent, The yearnings of thy dying love. 4 The grace I surely shall receive; Thy death hath bought the grace for me! This is my whole desire to live, To live, and then to die in thee. Hymn 30. P. M. I have trodden the wine press alone. Isa. Ixiii. 3. 1 ESUS drinks the bitter cup, ; Tears the graves and mountains up By his expiring groan; Nature in convulsion lies, The great Jehovah dies. 2 O my God, he dies for me, I feel the mortal smart! A sight that breaks my heart! Sioners, ye nay love him too, For one who bled for you. 3 Weep o'er your desire and hope, With tears of humblest love! And reigns enthron'd above! Pow'r is all to Jesus given; The immortal king of heaven. And truth, which never fail : Hast’ning to behold thy face Without a dimming veil. 1 We shall see our heavenly King, All thy glorious love proclaim, Hymn 31. P. M. and it ceaseth for ever. Psalm xlix. 8. WHERE bhall my wond'ring soul begin? I A brand pluck'd from eternal fire! Or sing my great Deliv'rer's praise ? 2 O how shall I thy goodness tell, Father, which thou to me hast show'd? I should be call’d a child of God, Blest with this antepast of Heaven. Or basely fear his gifts to own? Shall I the hallow'd cross to shun, By hiding it within my heart? Harlots, and publicans, and thieves ! Sinners alone his grace receives : P 5 Come, O my guilty brethren, come, Groaning beneath your load of sin: His bleeding heart shall make you room, His open side shall take you in : He calls you now, invites you home, Come, O my guilty brethren, come. 6. For you the purple current flow'd In pardons from his wounded side: Languish'd for you the Son of God, For you the Prince of glory died: Believe, and all your sin's forgiven, Only believe and yours is heaven. Hymn 32. L. M. Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and how myself before the high GOD? Micah vi. 6. 1 CHEREWITH, O Lord, shall I draw W ? (, How in thy purer eyes appear : What shall I bring to gain thy grace? ? Will gifts delight the Lord most high? Will multiplied oblations please? Thousands of rams his favour búy, Or slaughter'd hecatombs appease? 3 Can these assuage the wrath of God ? Can these wash out my guilty stain? Rivers of oil, and seas of blood, Alas! they all must flow in vain! 4 Whoe'er to thee themselves approve, Must take the path thy word bath show'd; Justice pursue, and mercy love, And humbly walk by faith with God: |
