3. Own ye his name; and seek to prove The riches of his saving love; With fervor seek; and, as ye go, Deep and more deep your joys shall grow. 4. Let all our tongues his name confess; Christ's Passion. 1. The morning dawns upon the place 2. Last eve by those he called his own, He met his enemies alone, In all their malice, rage, and pride. 3. No guile within his mouth is found, He neither threatens nor complains; Dumb midst his murderers he remains. He bows his head; the conflict ends. 5. Truly this was the Son of God, -Though in a servant's mean disguise, And bruised beneath the Father's rod; Not for himself, for man he dies. |
