Hymn 44 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.44.1 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Matthew 27:57 First Line: He dies! the friend of sinners dies! Lyrics: He dies! the friend of sinners dies! Lo! Salem's daughters weep around; A solemn darkness veils the skies; A sudden trembling shakes the ground. Come, saints, and drop a tear or two For him who groaned beneath your load: He shed a thousand drops for you, A thousand drops of richer blood. Here's love and grief beyond degree, The Lord of glory dies for men! But lo! what sudden joys we see; Jesus the dead revives again! The rising God forsakes the tomb! The tomb in vain forbids his rise; Cherubic legions guard him home, And shout him welcome to the skies Break off your fears, ye saints, and tell How high our great Deliv'rer reigns; Sing how he spoiled the hosts of hell, And led the monster Death in chains. Say, "Live for ever, wondrous King! Born to redeem, and strong to save; Then ask the monster, "Where's thy sting?" And, "Where's thy vict'ry, boasting Grave?" Languages: English

Oh, the pangs his soul sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss, Learn of him to bear the cross. 3 Calvary's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at his feet, Mark that miracle of time-- God's own sacrifice complete; It is finished, hear him cry, Learn of Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb Where they laid his lifeless clay; All is solitude and gloom-- Who hath taken him away? Christ hath risen--he meets our eyes; Saviour, teach us so to rise. Topics: Christ Life, Office, and Example; Christ an Example in Suffering
