Father! who in the olive shade,
When the dark hour came on,
Didst, with a breath of heavenly aid,
Strengthen thy Son;
O, in the anguish of our night,
Send us down blest relief;
And to the chastened, let Thy might
Hallow the grief!
And thou, that, when the starry sky
Saw the dread strife begun,
Didst teach adoring faith to cry,
�Thy will be done!��
By thy meek spirit, thou, of all
That e�er have mourned the chief,
Thou Saviour! if the stroke doth fall,
Hallow this grief!�
---Alternative verses---
O, in the anguish of our night,
Send us down blest relief;
And to the chastened, let Thy might
Hallow the grief!
By thy meek spirit, thou, of all
That e�er have mourned the chief,
Our Saviour! when the stroke doth fall,
Hallow our grief!
