St. Luke Passion (Side B)
Away, away with this man
Away with this man, away
And release Barabbas, Barabbas, Barabbas release!
Away with this man, with this man Away, away with this man and release (Unto us) Barabbus, Barabbus, Barabbus release unto us
And Pilate spake onto them yet again
Desiring to release Jesus
But they all shouted, saying
Crucify Him x10
And Pilate said the third time unto them:
Why, what evil hath this man done?
I have tried Him and found no cause of death in Him; I will therefore chastise Him, and release Him
But they werе all instant with loud voices Requiring that He might bе crucified
And the voices of them and of the Chief Priests prevailed
And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required
And there were also two others, malefactors led with Him, to be crucified with Him And when they came to the place which is called Calvary, there they crucified Him
And the malefactors with Him, one on the right hand, and the other on the left
Then Jesus said:
Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do
And Parting His Garments among them, that cast the lots
And the people stood beholding
And the rulers also with them derided him and said
He hath saved x2
Let Him save Himself if He be Christ x2
If he be Christ the chosen of God
He hath saved others, let Him save Himself
Let Him save Himself if He be Christ If He be Christ the chosen of God
And The Soldiers Also Mocked Him
Coming to him and offering him vinegar and saying
If Thou be King, the King of Judah
If Thou be King of Judah, save Thyself, save Thyself if Thou be King If Thou be the King of Judah save Thyself
If Thou be the King, if Thou be King of Judah
And A Superscription also was written over him
In letters of Greek and of Latin and in characters of Hebrew
This is the king of the jews x2
O Sacred head, sore wounded
Defiled and put to scorn;
O Kingly head surrounded
With mocking crown of thorn:
What sorrow mars Thy grandeur?
Can death Thy bloom deflower?
O Countenance whose splendour The hosts of Heaven adore
One Of The Malefactors also, which were crucified with him
Railed on him and said
“If thou be the christ, then save they self from us”
But the others answering, rebuked him and said
Dost not even thou fear God seeing thou art in the same condemnation? And we indeed with justice, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; But this Man has done nothing amiss
And he said unto Jesus:
Lord, remember me when Thou comest into Thy kingdom
And Jesus said unto him:
Verily I say unto thee, today shalt thou be with me in Paradise
And It Was About The Sixth Hour and a darkness came all over the land until the ninth hour
And the light of the sun was darkened and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst
And when jesus had cried with a loud voice he said
“Father, into they hands, I commend my spirit”
And having said thus, he give up the ghost
Dear Lord, beneath Thy Cross I bow
Thou art indeed my saviour now;
Thy life for me is freely given
Oh! by Thy Cross
Bid me to rise with Thee to Heaven
O Jesu Christ
Thy Cross doth call me
O Jesu Christ
Thy Cross doth call me
For thou did'st give
Thy life for mine
Thou did'st give
Thy life, for mine
O Jesu Christ
Thy Cross doth call me
For Thou did'st give
Thy life for mine
Jesu Christ, Jesu Christ
O Jesu Christ
Thy Cross doth call me
For Thou did'st give
Thy life for mine
For Thou did'st give
Thy life, for mine
Thy Sacred Heart
For me is breaking
Thy Sacred Heart
For me is breaking
For Thee my love at last is waking
For Thee, my love is waking
My life for ever more be thine x2
It is finished, Lord of Mercy;
Thou hast suffered
Thou hast died To the Cross
Thy love hath brought
Thee For Thy people crucified
Thou dost for our sins atone;
Trust we in Thy Cross alone
Strive we never more to grieve
Thee In our hearts we now receive Thee
It is finished, Lord of Spirits
Death must now yield up his prize;
Thou hast conquered, nought can hold
Thee From the grave in triumph rise;
To Thy Father's Throne ascend
There Thy loved ones to befriend;
Here with food eternal feed us
To the Heavenly pastures lead us
It is finished, Lord of Glory
Joy doth fill our hearts again
For blest Saviour, Thou dost call us
Up to Heaven with Thee to reign
Leaving things of earth and time
Seek we heavenly joys sublime
Joys all human thought transcending Joys supernal and unending!
