Go to Dark Gethsemane
{Go to Dark Gethsemane GETHSEMANE-Richard Redhead PILOT-John E. Gould Go to Dark Gethsemane } Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the tempter's power; Your Redeemer's conflict see, Watch with him one bitter hour; Turn not from his griefs away, Learn of Jesus Christ to pray. Follow to the judgment hall; View the Lord of life arraigned; Oh, the wormwood and the gall! Oh, the pangs his soul sustained! Shun not suffering, shame, or loss; Learn of him to bear the cross. Calvary's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at his feet, Mark that miracle of time, God's own sacrifice complete: "It is finished," hear him cry; Learn of Jesus Christ to die. Early hasten to the tomb, Where they laid his breathless clay; Who hath taken him away? Christ is risen; he meets our eyes; Saviour, teach us so to rise! |
