O Lord, by faith
we look above,
And crowned with
brightest glory see
Thyself, by man
once crowned with thorns,
And hear Thee say,
"Remember Me."
The cross! 'twas there
Thou bowedst Thy head;
There deeper pangs
than mortals know
Did rend Thy heart,
and deepest floods
Of wrath divine
did Thee o'erflow.
Thine anguish, Lord,
in that dread hour,
When God in justice
hid His face,
And earth and hell
conjoined their power,
Surpasses human
thought to trace.
Love brought Thee down,
love led Thee on,
Nor aught Thy steadfast
heart could move,
Till all redemption's
toil was done;
Oh, matchless
mystery of love!
