3.
Then to those Feet I'll venture near,
And wash them with a contrite tear,
And ev'ry bleeding wound I see,
I'll think He bore them all for me.
4.
Deep graven on my sinful heart,
Oh, never may that form depart,
That with me always may abide
The thought of Jesus crucified.

LENT AND PASSIONTIDE
O'erwhelmed in depths of woe
Saevo dolorum turbine
Tr. Rev. E. Caswall
Nicola A. Montani
Moderato
1.
O'erwhelmed in depths of woe,
Upon the Tree of scorn
Hangs the Redeemer of mankind,
With racking anguish torn.
2.
See! How the nails those Hands
And Feet so tender rend;
See! Down His Face, and Neck, and Breast,
His sacred Blood descend.
3.
Hark! With what awful cry,
His Spirit takes its flight;
That cry, it smote His Mother's heart
And wrapt her soul in night.
4.
Come, fall before His Cross,
Who shed for us His blood;
Who dies, the victim of pure love,
To make us Sons of God.
5.
Jesu! All praise to Thee,
Our joy and endless rest;
Be Thou our Guide while pilgrims here,
Our Crown amid the blest.

PALM SUNDAY
All glory, laud and honor
From the Latin of St.Theodulph by Dr. J. M. Neale
M. Haydn
Maestoso con spirito
1.
All glory, laud, and honor
To Thee Redeemer, King,
To Whom the lips of children
Made sweet hosannas ring.
Refrain
All glory, laud, and honor,
To Thee Redeemer, King,
To Whom the lips of children
Made sweet hosannas ring.
2.
Thou art the King of Israel,
Thou David's royal Son,
Who in the Lord's name comest
The King and blessed One.
3.
The company of angels
Are praising Thee on high,
And mortal men and all things
Created make reply.
4.
The people of the Hebrews
With palms before them went;
To praise and pray'r and anthems
Before Thee we present.
5.
To Thee before Thy Passion
They sang their hymn of praise;
To Thee now high exalted
Our melody we raise.
6.
Thou didst accept their praises,
Accept the pray'rs we bring,
Who in all good delightest,
Thou good and gracious King.
