O Saviour we would
contemplate Thee
In all Thy pathway
here so lowly,
Thy life so pleasing
to Thy Father,
So perfect, faithful,
and so holy.
Though Son of God,
yet Man of Sorrows,
With human grief
Thou wast acquainted,
Through want and woe
Thy pathway leading,
Yet ever wast with sin untainted.
O Lord, we see Thee
in the garden,
In agony of intercession,
With falling blood-drops,
tears and crying,
We contemplate
Thy holy passion.
O Saviour, we
Thy cross remember,
When Thou, the weight
of sin enduring,
Becam'st the holy
spotless Victim,
For us eternal
life securing.
By faith we see
Thee high exalted,
The crown of glory
ever wearing,
Where every heart
and voice united,
"The Lamb is worthy"
are declaring.
