Let Me Dwell on Golgotha
Author: John Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 39 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Let me dwell on Golgotha,
Weep and love my life away!
While I see Him on the tree
Weep and bleed, and die for me!
2. That dear blood, for sinners spilt,
Shows my sin in all its guilt:
Ah, my soul, He bore thy load,
Thou hast slain the Lamb of God.
3. Hark! His dying words; Forgive,
Father, let the sinner live;
Sinner, wipe thy tears away,
I thy ransom freely pay.
4. While I hear this grace revealed,
And obtain a pardon sealed;
All my lost affections move,
Wakened by the force of love.
5. Farewell world, thy gold is dross,
Now I see the bleeding cross;
Jesus died to set me free
From the law, and sin, and thee!
6. He has dearly bought my soul
Lord, accept, and claim the whole!
To Thy will I all resign,
Now, no more my own, but Thine.

Let Me Dwell on Golgotha
When the Gospel Race Is Run
Author: William Dickinson Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1. When the Gospel race is run,
When the Gentile day is done,
Signs and wonders there shall be
In the heaven, and earth, and sea.
2. Jesus, in that awful hour
Every soul shall own Thy power,
Every eye the cloud; shall scan,
Signal of the Son of Man.
3. Lo! mid terror and mid tears,
Jesus in the clouds appears,
While the trump’s tremendous blast
Peals, the loudest and the last.
4. East and west, and south and north,
Speeds each glorious angel forth,
Gathering in with glittering wing
Zion’s saints to Zion’s king.
5. Man nor angel knows that day,
Heaven and earth shall pass away;
Still shall stand the Savior’s Word,
Deathless as its deathless Lord. Used With Tune: CALVARY (Monk) Text Sources: Hymns for Passion Week and the Forty Days (London: J. Nisbet & Company, 1846)

What A Mournful Life Is Mine
Author: John Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What a mournful life is mine,
Filled with crosses, pains and cares!
Every work defiled with sin,
Every step beset with snares!
2 If alone I pensive sit,
I myself can hardly bear;
If I pass along the street,
Sin and riot triumph there.
3 Jesus! how my heart is pained,
How it mourns for souls deceived!
When I hear Thy name profaned,
When I see Thy Spirit grieved!
4 When Thy children’s griefs I view,
Their distress becomes my own;
All I hear, or see, or do,
Makes me tremble, weep and groan.
5 Mourning thus I long had been,
When I heard my Savior’s voice;
"Thou hast cause to mourn for sin,
But in Me thou may’st rejoice."
6 This kind word dispelled my grief,
Put to silence my complaints;
Though of sinners I am chief,
He has ranked me with His saints.
7 Though constrained to dwell awhile
Where the wicked strive and brawl;
Let them frown, so He but smile,
Heav’n will make amends for all.
8 There, believers, we shall rest,
Free from sorrow, sin and fears;
Nothing there our peace molest,
Through eternal rounds of years.
9 Let us then the fight endure,
See our captain looking down;
He will make the conquest sure,
And bestow the promised crown. Used With Tune: CALVARY Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London, W. Oliver, 1779), Book 1
