Man of Sorrows wrapt in grief Lyrics

1. Man of sorrows wrapt in grief.

Bow thine ear to, our relief;

Thou for us the path hast trod

Of the dreadful wrath of God;

Thou the cup of fire hast drained

Till its light alone remained.

Lamb of love! We look to thee.

Hear our mournful litany.

2. By the garden, fraught with woe,

Wither thou full off wouldst go;

By thine agony of prayer.

In the desolation there;

By the dire and deep distress.

Of that mystery fathomless-

Lord, our tears I mercy see;

Hearken to our litany.

3. By the chalice brimming O’er

With disgrace and torment sore;

By those lips which farm would pray,

That it might but pass away;

By thy heart which drank it dry,

Lest a rebel race should die-

Be thy pity, Lord, our plea;

Hear our solemn litany.

4. Man of sorrows!

Let thy grief purchase for us our relief;

Lord of mercy! Bow thine ear,

Slow to anger, swift to hear,

By the cross’s royal road.

Lead us to the throne of God.

There for age to sing to thee

Heaven’s triumphant litany.
