Suggested lyrics to use with arrangement:
O sacred Head, now wounded, with grief and shame weighed down,
Now scornfully surrounded with thorns, Thine only crown;
O sacred Head, what glory, what bliss till now was Thine!
Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine.
What Thou, my Lord, hast suffered was all for sinners' gain:
Mine, mine was the transgression, but Thine the deadly pain!
Lo, here I fall, my Savior! 'Tis I deserve Thy place;
Look on me with Thy favor; vouchsafe to me Thy grace.
What language shall I borrow to thank Thee, dearest Friend,
For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end?
O make me Thine forever; and should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never outlive my love to Thee,
Outlive my love to Thee.
Lyrics by Paul Gerhardt, based on a Latin poem; trans. by James W. Alexander
