Luke 23:32-56

• [Luk 23:32] O Thou From Whom All Goodness Flows

  O Thou, from Whom all goodness flows, I lift my heart to Thee; In all my sorrows, conflicts, woes, Dear Lord, remember me. When groaning on my burdened heart My sins lie heavily, My pardon speak, new peace impart; In love remember me. Temptations sore obstruct my way, And ills I cannot flee: O give me strength, Lord, as my day; For good remember me. Distressed with pain, disease, and grief, This feeble body see; Grant patience, rest, and kind relief: Hear and remember me. If on my face, for Thy dear Name, Shame and reproaches be, All hail reproach, and welcome shame, If Thou remember me. The hour is near; consigned to death, I own the just decree; “Savior,” with my last parting breath I’ll cry, “Remember me.”

  Come to Calvary’s holy mountain, Sinners, ruined by the Fall; Here a pure and healing fountain Flows to you, to me, to all, In a full, perpetual tide, Opened when our Savior died. Come in poverty and meanness, Come defiled, without, within; From infection and uncleanness, From the leprosy of sin, Wash your robes and make them white; Ye shall walk with God in light. Come in sorrow and contrition, Wounded, impotent, and blind; Here the guilty free remission, Here the troubled peace, may find. Health this fountain will restore; He that drinks shall thirst no more. He that drinks shall live forever; ’Tis a soul renewing flood. God is faithful; God will never Break His covenant of blood, Signed when our Redeemer died, Sealed when He was glorified.

• [Luk 23:33] Lord Jesus Christ, My Life, My Light

  Lord Jesus Christ, my Life, my Light, My Strength by day, my Trust by night, On earth I’m but a passing guest And sorely with my sins oppressed. Far off I see my Fatherland, Where through Thy blood I hope to stand. But ere I reach that paradise, A weary way before me lies. My heart sinks at the journey’s length, My wasted flesh and little strength; My soul alone still cries in me: “Lord, take me home, take me to Thee!” Oh, let Thy sufferings give me power To meet the last and darkest hour! Thy blood refresh and comfort me; Thy bonds and fetters make me free. Oh, let Thy holy wounds for me Clefts in the rock forever be Where as a dove my soul can hide And safe from Satan’s rage abide. And when my spirit flies away, Thy dying words shall be my stay. Thy cross shall be my staff in life, Thy holy grave my rest from strife. Lord, in Thy nail prints let me read That Thou to save me hast decreed And grant that in Thine opened side My troubled soul may ever hide. Since Thou hast died, the Pure, the Just, I take my homeward way in trust. The gates of Heav’n, Lord, open wide When here I may no more abide. And when the last great day shall come And Thou, our Judge, shalt speak the doom, Let me with joy behold the light And set me then upon Thy right. Renew this wasted flesh of mine That like the sun it there may shine Among the angels pure and bright, Yea, like Thyself in glorious light. Ah, then I’ll have my heart’s desire, When, singing with the angels’ choir, Among the ransomed of Thy grace, Forever I’ll behold Thy face!

  “Father, forgive,” the Savior said “They know not what they do”; His heart was moved when thus He prayed For me, my friends, and you. He saw, that as the Jews abused And crucified His flesh, So He, by us, would be refused, And crucified afresh. Through love of sin, we long were prone To act as Satan bid; But now, with grief and shame we own, We knew not what we did. We knew not the desert of sin, Nor Whom we thus defied; Nor where our guilty souls had been, If Jesus had not died. We knew not what a law we broke, How holy, just and pure! Nor what a God we durst provoke, But thought ourselves secure. But Jesus all our guilt foresaw, And shed His precious blood To satisfy the holy law, And make our peace with God. My sin, dear Savior, made Thee bleed, Yet didst Thou pray for me! I knew not what I did, indeed, When ignorant of Thee.

For me was that compassion, For me that tender care; I need His wide forgiveness As much as any there. It was my pride and hardness That hung Him on the tree; Those cruel nails, O Savior, Were driven in by me. And often I have slighted Thy gentle voice that said: Forgive me too, Lord Jesus, I knew not what I did. O depth of sweet compassion! O love divine and true!

In the gloomy realms of darkness Shines a light unknown before, For the Lord of dead and living Enters at the open door. See!

Oh, the bliss to which He calls them, Ransomed by His precious blood, From the gloomy realms of darkness To the paradise of God! There in lowliest joy and wonder Stands the robber at His side, Reaping now the blessèd promise Spoken by the Crucified. Jesus, Lord of dead and living, Let Thy mercy rest on me; Grant me, too, when life is finished, Rest in paradise with Thee.

• [Luk 23:43] Saints Of God! Their Conflict Past, The

  The saints of God! their conflict past, And life’s long battle won at last, No more they need the shield or sword, They cast them down before their Lord: O happy saints! forever blest, At Jesus feet’ how safe your rest! The saints of God! their wand’rings done, No more their weary course they run, No more they faint, no more they fall, No foes oppress, no fears appall: O happy saints! forever blest, In that dear home how sweet your rest! The saints of God! life’s voyage o’er, Safe landed on that blissful shore, No stormy tempests now they dread, No roaring billows lift their head: O happy saints! forever blest, In that calm haven of your rest! The saints of God their vigil keep, While yet their mortal bodies sleep, Till from the dust they too shall rise And soar triumphant to the skies: O happy saints! rejoice and sing: He quickly comes, your Lord and King! O God of saints! to Thee we cry; O Savior! plead for us on high; O Holy Ghost! our Guide and Friend, Grant us Thy grace till life shall end; That with all the saints our rest may be In that bright paradise with Thee!

• [Luk 23:45] Behold The Savior Of Mankind

  Behold the Savior of mankind Nailed to the shameful tree! How vast the love that Him inclined To bleed and die for thee! Though far unequal our low praise To Thy vast sufferings prove, O Lamb of God, thus all our days, Thus will we grieve and love. Hark, how He groans, while nature shakes, And earth’s strong pillars bend; The temple’s veil in sunder breaks, The solid marbles rend. “’Tis done!” The precious ransom’s paid, “Receive My soul,” He cries! See where He bows His sacred head! He bows His head, and dies! But soon He’ll break death’s envious chain, And in full glory shine: O Lamb of God! was ever pain, Was ever love, like Thine? Thy loss our ruin did repair; Death by death is slain; Thou wilt at length exalt us where Thou dost in glory reign.

• [Luk 23:45] Lord, Remove The Veil Away

  Lord, remove the veil away, Let us see Thyself today: Thou Who camest from on high, For our sins to bleed and die, Help us now to cast aside All that would our hearts divide; With the Father and the Son, Let Thy living Church be one. Oh, from earthly cares set free, Let us find our rest in Thee; May our toils and conflicts cease In the calm of Sabbath peace; That Thy people here below Something of the bliss may know, Something of the rest and love, In the Sabbath-home above. Give our souls the spotless dress Of Thy perfect righteousness; So at length each welcome guest Then shall enter to the feast, Take the harp and raise the song, All Thy ransomed ones among; Earthly cares and sorrows o’er, Joys to last forevermore.

• [Luk 23:46] And Now, Beloved Lord, Thy Soul Resigning

  And now, belovèd Lord, Thy Soul resigning, Into Thy Father’s arms with conscious will, Calmly, with reverend grace, Thy head inclining, The throbbing brow and laboring breast grow still. Freely Thy life Thou yieldest, meekly bending E’en to the last beneath our sorrows’ load, Yet strong in death, in perfect peace commending, Thy Spirit to Thy Father and Thy God. My Savior, in mine hour of mortal anguish, When earth grows dim, and round me falls the night, O breathe Thy peace, as flesh and spirit languish, At that dread eventide let there be light. To Thy dear cross turn Thou my eyes in dying; Lay but my fainting head upon Thy breast; Those outstretched arms receive my latest sighing; And then, oh! then, Thine everlasting rest. O love! o’er mortal agony victorious, Now is Thy triumph! now that cross shall shine To earth’s remotest age revered and glorious, Of suffering’s deepest mystery the sign. The present, past and future here are blending, Moment supreme in this world’s history, Mid darkness, opening graves, and mountains rending, New light is dawning on humanity.

• [Luk 23:46] Into Thy Gracious Hands I Fall

  Into Thy gracious hands I fall, And with the arms of faith embrace; O King of glory, hear my call! O raise me, heal me by Thy grace! Arm me with Thy whole armor, Lord, Support my weakness with Thy might; Gird on my thigh Thy conquering sword, And shield me in the threatening fight. From faith to faith, from grace to grace, So in Thy strength shall I go on, Till heaven and earth flee from Thy face, And glory end what grace begun.

• [Luk 23:46] Wide Open Are Thy Hands

  Wide open are Thy hands, Paying with more than gold The awful debt of guilty men, Forever and of old. Ah, let me grasp those hands, That we may never part, And let the power of their blood Sustain my fainting heart. Wide open are Thine arms, A fallen world to embrace; To take to love and endless rest Our whole forsaken race. Lord, I am sad and poor, But boundless is Thy grace; Give me the soul transforming joy For which I seek Thy face. Draw all my mind and heart Up to Thy throne on high, And let Thy sacred cross exalt My spirit to the sky. To these, Thy mighty hands, My spirit I resign; Living, I live alone to Thee, Dying, alone am Thine.
