Author: John R. Clements Hymnal: Rodeheaver's Gospel Solos and Duets #90 (1925) First Line: Despised and rejected Lyrics: 1 Despised and rejected;
Acquainted with grief;
In sorrow He suffered
To bring man relief;
His pathway was sorrow,
His pillow was thorns,
And these make the crown that His forehead adorns,
And these make the crown that His forehead adorns.
2 O love all surpassing,
Amazing to see;
To bear uncomplaining
Theses sorrows for me;
His pathway was sorrow,
His pillow was thorns,
And these make the crown that His forehead adorns,
And these make the crown that His forehead adorns.
3 Like sheep we have wandered;
Each turned to his way;
The Lord on the Shepherd
The burdens must lay;
His pathway was sorrow,
His pillow was thorns,
And these make the crown that His forehead adorns,
And these make the crown that His forehead adorns.
4 O sad Man of Sorrow,
So little esteemed;
In anguish more trying
Than mortal has dreamed;
His pathway was sorrow,
His pillow was thorns,
And these make the crown that His forehead adorns,
And these make the crown that His forehead adorns.
