Darkly Rose the Guilty Morning
Author: Joseph Anstice Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Darkly rose the guilty morning,
When, the King of glory scorning,
Raged the fierce Jerusalem;
See the Christ, His cross upbearing,
See Him stricken, spit on, wearing
The thorn-plated diadem.
2. Not the crowd whose cries assailed Him,
Nor the hands that rudely nailed Him,
Slew Him on the cursèd tree;
Ours the sin from Heav’n that called Him,
Ours the sin whose burden galled Him
In the sad Gethsemane.
3. For our sins, of glory emptied,
He was fasting, lone, and tempted,
He was slain on Calvary;
Yet He for His murderers pleaded;
Lord, by us that prayer is needed,
We have pierced, yet trust in Thee.
4. In our wealth and tribulation,
By Thy precious cross and passion,
By Thy blood and agony,
By Thy glorious resurrection,
By Thy Holy Ghost’s protection,
Make us Thine eternally. Used With Tune: JOSEPH
Darkly Rose the Guilty Morning
Jesus, Life And Way To Heaven
Author: Christian Richardt, 1831-1892; Jens C.Aaberg Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, life and way to Heaven,
Thee we have our promise given,
And in Thee we will confide.
For among all earthly voices,
Thine alone our heart rejoices,
Be Thou hence our strength and guide.
2 Lead us through life’s darksome mazes,
Lift us o’er the thorny places,
Shield us from the parching sun.
Grant us strength when faint and weary,
Comfort when the way is dreary,
Guard us till our race is won.
3 May we follow Thee in meekness,
Help us overcome our weakness,
Melt our heart with grace and love.
Let Thy name be burned within us,
So that naught from Thee shall win us
Till Thou callest us above. Used With Tune: JOSEPH
