Now Let Our Mournful Songs Record
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 114 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Now let our mournful songs record
The dying sorrows of our Lord,
When He complained in tears and blood,
As one forsaken of his God.
2. The Jews beheld Him thus forlorn,
And shake their heads, and laugh in scorn:
“He rescued others from the grave;
Now let him try himself to save.
3. This is the man did once pretend
God was his Father and his Friend;
If God the blessèd loved him so,
Why doth He fail to help him now?
4. Barbarous people! cruel priests!
How they stood round like savage beasts!
Like lions gaping to devour,
When God had left Him in their power.
5. They wound His head, His hands, His feet,
Till streams of blood each other meet;
By lot His garments they divide,
And mock the pangs in which He died.
6. But God, the Father, heard His cry;
Raised from the dead, He reigns on high;
The nations learn His righteousness,
And humble sinners taste His grace. Used With Tune: ANGELUS Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

Like shadows gliding o'er the plain
At evening, when the sun had set
Author: Henry Twells, 1823-1900 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 At evening, when the sun had set,
the sick, O Lord, around you lay:
in such distress and pain they met,
but with what joy they went away!
2 Once more the evening falls, and we
oppressed with many ills, draw near,
and though your form we cannot see,
we know and feel that you are here.
3 O Saviour Christ, our cares dispel,
for some are sick, and some are sad,
and some have never loved you well,
and some have lost the love they had,
4 and all desire your perfect rest,
for none is wholly free from sin,
and those who long to serve you best
are most aware of wrong within.
5 O Saviour Christ, O Son of Man,
you have been troubled, tempted, tried;
your kind but searching glance can scan
the very wounds that shame would hide.
6 Your touch has still its ancient power;
no word from you can fruitless fall:
hear us, touch us in this hour,
and in your mercy heal us all. Topics: Evening; Evening; Fear; Gratitude; Jesus Christ Temptation of; Jesus Christ Healer and Teacher; Sin / Sinner Scripture: Matthew 8:16-17 Used With Tune: ANGELUS

Nature with Open Volume Stands
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 148 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Nature with open volume stands,
To spread her maker’s praise abroad;
And every labor of His hands
Shows something worthy of a God.
2. But in the grace that rescued man
His brightest form of glory shines;
Here, on the cross, ’tis fairest drawn,
In precious blood and crimson lines.
3. Here His whole name appears complete;
Nor wit can guess, nor reason prove,
Which of the letters best is writ,
The power, the wisdom, or the love.
4. Here I behold His inmost heart,
Where grace and vengeance strangely join,
Piercing His Son with sharpest smart,
To make the purchased pleasure mine.
5. O! the sweet wonders of that cross,
Where God the Savior loved and died
Her noblest life my spirit draws
From His dear wounds and bleeding side.
6. I would forever speak His name,
In sounds to mortal ears unknown;
With angels join to praise the Lamb,
And worship at His Father’s throne. Used With Tune: ANGELUS Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707-1709
