EN 4981 In the Lord’s Atoning Grief

2Cor.5.14

Versi Version 1

1

In the Lord’s atoning grief

Be our rest and sweet relief;

Store we deep in heart’s recess

All the shame and bitterness.

2

Thorns, and cross, and nails, and lance,

Wounds, our treasure that enhance,

Vinegar, and gall, and reed,

And the pang His soul that freed.

3

May these all our spirits sate,

And with love inebriate;

In our souls plant virtue’s root,

And mature its glorious fruit.

4

Crucified! we Thee adore,

Thee with all our hearts implore;

Us with saintly hands unite

In the realms of heavenly light.

5

Christ, by coward hands betrayed,

Christ, for us a Captive made,

Christ, upon the bitter tree

Slain for man, be praise to Thee.
