EN 3522 From Calvary a Cry Was Heard

Mark.15.34

Versi Version 1

1

From Calvary a cry was heard,

A bitter and heart-rending cry;

My Savior! every mournful word

Bespeaks Thy soul’s deep agony.

2

A horror of great darkness fell

On Thee, Thou spotless, holy One!

And all the swarming hosts of hell

Conspired to tempt God’s only Son.

3

The scourge, the thorns, the deep disgrace,

These Thou couldst bear, nor once repine;

But when Jehovah veiled His face,

Unutterable pangs were Thine.

4

Let the dumb world its silence break;

Let pealing anthems rend the sky;

Awake, my sluggish soul, awake!

He died, that we might never die.

5

Lord, on Thy cross I fix mine eye:

If e’er I lose its strong control,

O let that dying, piercing cry

Melt and reclaim my wandering soul.
