1-Corinthians_1-18: For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God

Great High Priest, we see Thee stooping,

With our names upon Thy breast;

In the garden groaning, drooping,

To the ground with horrors prest:

Wondering angels stood confounded,

To behold their Maker thus;

And can we remain unwounded,

When we know ‘twas all for us?

Can our wayward souls convert;

Nothing else from guilt release us,

Nothing else can melt the heart,

Law and terrors do but harden,

All the while they work alone;

But the sense of blood-bought pardon

Can dissolve a heart of stone.

 

 

 

 

Jesus, all our consolations

Flow from Thee, the sovereign good:

Love. and faith, and hope, and patience,
