JESUS CRUCIFIED.
JESUS CRUCIFIED.
Oh come and mourn with me awhile! See, Mary calls us to her side; Oh come and let us mourn with her; Jesus, our Love, is crucified !
Have we no tears to shed for Him, While soldiers scoff and Jews deride? Ah ! look how patiently He hangs ; Jesus, our Love, is crucified!
How fast His Hands and Feet are nailed; His blessed Tongue with thirst is tied; His failing Eyes are blind with blood; Jesus, our Love, is crucified!
His Mother cannot reach His Face; She stands in helplessness beside; Her heart is martyred with her Son's; Jesus, our Love, is crucified!
Seven times He spoke, seven words of love, And all three hours His silence cried For mercy on the souls of men; Jesus, our Love, is crucified!
What was Thy crime, my dearest Lord? By earth, by heaven, Thou hast been tried, And guilty found of too much love; Jesus, our Love, is crucified! |
