327. When My Love To Christ Grows Weak

1 When my love to Christ grows weak,
When for deeper faith I seek,
Then in tho't I go to Thee,
Garden of Gethsemane!

2 There I walk amid the shades,
While the ling'ring twilight fades,
See that suff'ring, friendless One,
Weeping, praying there alone.

3 When my love for man grows weak,
When for stronger faith I seek,
Hill of Calvary! I go
To thy scenes of fear and woe.

4 There behold His agony,
Suffered on the bitter tree;
See His anguish, see His faith,
Love triumphant still in death.

5 Then to life I turn again,
Learning all the worth of pain;
Learning all the might that lies
In a full self-sacrifice.
