157- Go to Dark Gethsemane

Jesus Christ: Sufferings and Death

1

  • Go to dark Gethsemane,
  • Ye that feel the tempter's power;
  • Your Redeemer's conflict see;
  • Watch with Him one bitter hour;
  • Turn not from His griefs away;
  • Learn of Jesus Christ to pray.

2

  • See Him at the judgment hall,
  • Beaten, bound, reviled, arraigned;
  • See Him meekly bearing all;
  • Love to man His soul sustained;
  • Shun not suffering, shame, or loss;
  • Learn of Christ to bear the cross.

3

  • Calvary's mournful mountain climb;
  • There adoring at His feet,
  • Mark that miracle of time,
  • God's own sacrifice complete;
  • "It is finished!" hear Him cry;
  • Learn of Jesus Christ to die.
