Author: Henry Hart Milman Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #76 (1917) First Line: When our heads are bowed with woe Lyrics: 1 When our heads are bowed with woe,
When our bitter tears o'erflow,
When we mourn the lost, the dear,
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear!
2 Thou our throbbing flesh hast worn,
Thou our mortal griefs hast borne,
Thou hast shed the human tear;
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear!
3 When the heart is sad within
With the thought of all its sin;
When the spirit shrinks with fear,
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear!
4 Thou the shame, the grief, hast known;
Though the sins were not Thine own,
Thou hast deigned their load to bear;
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear!
5 Thou hast bowed the dying head,
Thou the blood of life hast shed,
Thou hast filled a mortal bier;
Jesus, Son of Mary, hear!
Amen.
