Now, my soul, thy voice upraising,
Sing the cross in mournful strain;
Tell the sorrows all-amazing,
Tell the wounds and dying pain
|: Which our Saviour :|
Sinless, bore, for sinners slain.
He to freedom hath restored us
By the very bonds he bare;
And his flesh and blood afford us
Each a seal of mercy rare:
|: Lo! he draws us :|
To the cross, and keeps us there.
Jesus! may thy promised blessing
Comfort to our souls afford:
May we now thy love possessing,
And at length our full reward, -
|: Ever praise thee, :|
Thee, our ever glorious Lord!
