Christ, the Life of All the Living
Author: Ernst C. Homburg; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 67 hymnals Scripture: Mark 15, 16 Refrain First Line: thousand, thousand thanks are due Lyrics: 1 Christ, the life of all the living;
Christ, the death of death our foe;
Christ, for us yourself once giving
to the darkest depths of woe:
through your suffering, death, and merit,
life eternal we inherit;
Refrain:
thousand, thousand thanks are due,
dearest Jesus, unto you.
2 You have suffered great affliction
and have borne it patiently,
even death by crucifixion:
our atonement full and free.
Lord, you chose to be tormented,
that our doom should be prevented; [Refrain]
3 Lord, for all that bought our pardon,
for the sorrows deep and sore,
for the anguish in the garden,
we will thank you evermore.
For the victory of your dying—
sinful nature mortifying— [Refrain]

Christ, the Life of All the Living
Sing, my tongue, the glorious battle
Author: Venantius Fortunatus, 530-609; John Mason Neale, 1818-66 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 62 hymnals 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 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 58 hymnals 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!
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Lent Used With Tune: O DU LIEBE
Jesus, Refuge of the Weary
Hymn 37 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 44 hymnals Scripture: Mark 15:20 First Line: The mighty frame of glorious grace Lyrics:
The mighty frame of glorious grace,
That brightest monument of praise
That e'er the God of love designed,
Employs and fills my lab'ring mind.
Begin, my soul, the heav'nly song,
A burden for an angel's tongue:
When Gabriel sounds these awful things,
He tunes and summons all his stungs.
Proclaim inimitable love:
Jesus, the Lord of worlds above,
Puts off the beams of bright array,
And veils the God in mortal clay!
What black reproach defiled his name,
When with our sins he took our shame!
He whom adoring angels blessed
Is made the impious rebel's jest.
He that distributes crowns and thrones
Hangs on a tree, and bleeds, and groans!
The Prince of Life resigns his breath,
The King of Glory bows to death!
But see the wonders of his power,
He triumphs in his dying hour;
And while by Satan's rage he fell,
He dashed the rising hopes of hell.
Thus were the hosts of death subdued,
And sin was drowned in Jesus' blood;
Thus he arose, and reigns above,
And conquers sinners by his love.
Who shall fulfil this boundless song?
The theme surmounts an angel's tongue:
How low, how vain are mortal airs,
When Gabriel's nobler harp despairs!
Hymn 37 Part 1
Gather us in, thou Love that fillest all!
Author: George Matheson (1842-1906) Meter: 10.10.10.10.4 Appears in 40 hymnals Scripture: Mark 15:38 Lyrics: 1 Gather us in, thou Love that fillest all!
Gather our rival faiths within thy fold!
Rend all our temple veils and bid them fall,
that we may know that thou hast been of old;
gather us in.
2 Gather us in: we worship only thee;
in varied names we stretch a common hand;
in diverse forms a common soul we see;
in many ships we seek one spirit-land;
gather us in.
3 Each sees one colour of thy rainbow light;
each looks upon one tint and calls it heaven;
thou art the fullness of our partial sight;
we are not perfect till we find the seven;
gather us in.
4 Some seek a Father in the heavens above,
some ask a human image to adore,
some crave a spirit vast as life and love;
within thy mansions we have all and more;
gather us in. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Church Celebrates - National Life; Church unity and ecumenism; Communion of Saints; Unity of Humanity Used With Tune: GATHER US IN
