Luke 23:44-45

• [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.
