O Come and mourn with me a whileIndex

O come and mourn with me awhileO break, O break, hard heart of mine!
O come ye to the Saviour's side;Thy weak selflove and guilty pride
O come, together let us mournHis Pilate and his Judas were
Jesus our Lord is crucified.Jesus our Lord is crucified.

Have we no tears to shed for himA broken heart, a fount of tears,
While soldiers scoff and Jew derideAsk, and they will not be denied
Ah! look how patiently he hangsA broken heart love's cradle is
Jesus our Lord is crucified.Jesus our Lord is crucified.

Seventimes he spake, seven words of loveO love of God! O sin of man!
And all three hours his silence criedIn this dread act your strength is tried
For mercy on the souls of menAnd victory remains with love
Jesus our Lord is crucified.Jesus our Lord is crucified.
