Throned Upon the Awful Tree
Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: The Worshipbook #605 (1972) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Scripture: Mark 15:34 Lyrics: 1 Throned upon the awful tree,
Lamb of God, your grief we see.
Darkness veils your anguished face;
None its lines of woe can trace.
None can tell what pangs unknown
Hold you silent and alone—
2 Silent through those three dread hours,
Wrestling with the evil powers,
Left alone with human sin,
Gloom around you and within,
Till th'appointed time is nigh,
Till the Lamb of God may die.
3 Hark, that cry that peals aloud
Upward through the whelming cloud!
You, the Father's only Son,
You, his own anointed One,
You are asking— can it be?—
"Why have you forsaken me?"
4 Lord, should fear and anguish roll
Darkly o'er our sinful soul,
You, who once were thus bereft
That your own might ne'er be left,
Teach us by that bitter cry
In the gloom to know you nigh.
Amen. Topics: Sacraments Lord's Supper; Christian Year Lent; Christian Year Good Friday Tune Title: ARFON

O Sing a Song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis FitzGerald Benson Hymnal: Glory to God #159 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Mark 15:21-39 Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem,
of shepherds watching there,
and of the news that came to them
from angels in the air.
The light that shone on Bethlehem
fills all the world today.
Of Jesus' birth and peace on earth
the angels sing alway.
2 O sing a song of Nazareth,
of sunny days of joy;
O sing of fragrant flowers' breath,
and of the sinless boy.
For now the flowers of Nazareth
in every heart may grow.
Now spreads the fame of his dear name
on all the winds that blow.
3 O sing a song of Galilee,
of lake and woods and hill,
of him who walked upon the sea
and bade its waves be still.
For though, like waves on Galilee,
dark seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master's word,
falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary,
its glory and dismay,
of him who hung upon the tree,
and took our sins away.
For he who died on Calvary
is risen from the grave,
and Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored,
is mighty now to save.

Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle
Author: Venantius Fortunatus, 530-609; John Mason Neale, 1818-66 Hymnal: Together in Song #331 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Scripture: Mark 15:12-24 Lyrics: 1 Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle;
of the mighty conflict sing:
tell the triumph of the victim,
to his cross your tribute bring.
Jesus Christ, the world's Redeemer,
from that cross now reigns as King.
2 When at length the appointed fullness
of the sacred time was come,
he was sent, the world's Creator,
from the Father's heavenly home
and was found in human fashion
offspring of the Virgin's womb.
3 When the thirty years were ended
which on earth he willed to see,
willingly he meets his passion,
born to set his people free;
on the cross the Lamb is lifted,
there the sacrifice to be.
4 There the nails and spear he suffers,
vinegar and gall and reed;
from his sacred body pierced
blood and water both proceed:
precious flood, which all creation
from the stain of sin has freed.
5 Faithful cross, above all other,
one and only noble tree,
none in foliage, none in blossom,
none in fruit your peer may be;
sweet the wood and sweet the iron,
and your load, most sweet is he.
6 Praise and honour to the Father,
praise and honour to the Son,
praise and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One:
One in might and One in glory
while eternal ages run.

Jesus, Refuge of the Weary
Author: Jane F. Wilde; Girolamo Savonarola Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #145 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Mark 15:29-30 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Refuge of the weary,
Blest Redeemer, whom we love,
Fountain in life's desert dreary,
Savior from the world above,
Oh, how oft Thine eyes, offended,
Gaze upon the sinner's fall!
Yet, upon the cross extended,
Thou didst bear the pain of all.
2 Do we pass that cross unheeding,
Breathing no repentant vow,
Tho' we see Thee wounded, bleeding,
See Thy thorn-encircled brow?
Yet Thy sinless death hath bro't us
Life eternal, peace, and rest;
Only what Thy grace hath taught us
Calms the sinner's stormy breast.
3 Jesus, may our hearts be burning
With more fervent love for Thee!
May our eyes be ever turning
To Thy cross of agony
Till in glory, parted never
From the blessed Savior's side,
Graven in our hearts forever
Dwell the cross, the Crucified!
