Mighty God, ascended Lord, O for a heart to praise my God; O for a lowly, contrite heart, Believing, true, and clean, With neither life nor death can part A heart in every thought renewed, Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart, Write Thy new name upon my heart, JERUSALEM! Jerusalem! Enthroned once on high, Thou favoured house of God on earth, Jerusalem! Jerusalem! Our tears shall flow for thee. O hadst thou known thy day of grace, O gaze not idly on their fall, He who spared not His chosen seed, O turn and seek thy Saviour's face HAVE mercy, Lord, on me, Blot out my crying sins, An upright mind anew. Withdraw not Thou Thy help, The joy Thy favour gives And Thy free Spirit's firm support Do thou unlock my lips, With sorrow closed and shame; So shall my mouth Thy wondrous praise To all the world proclaim. LORD, in this Thy mercy's day, On our knees we fall and pray. Holy Jesu, grant us tears, Fill us with heart-searching fears, Lord, on us Thy Spirit pour, By Thy night of agony, By Thy tears of bitter woe Bid us not from Thee to go. Grant us 'neath Thy wings a place, FROM lowest depths of woe To God I sent my cry; My soul with patience waits My longing eyes look out Let Israel trust in God, No bounds His mercy knows; The plenteous source and spring from whence Eternal succour flows. Whose friendly streams to us Supplies in want convey; A healing spring, a spring to cleanse, And wash our guilt away. Hosanna" cry: O Saviour meek, pursue Thy road, With palms and scattered garments strewed. Ride on! ride on in majesty! The angel armies of the sky Look down with sad and wondering eyes To see the approaching sacrifice. Ride on! ride on in majesty ! In lowly pomp ride on to die Bow Thy meek head to mortal pain ; Reign on reign on in majesty ! Reign on in triumph, Lord Most High! We hymn Thee on Thy throne of love, Almighty King, in realms above. WHEN I survey the wondrous Cross See! from His head, His hands, His feet, |
