Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
O come and mourn with me a while,
see Mary calls us to her side
O come and let us mourn with her:
Jesus our Love is crucified.
VERSE 2
Have we no tears to mourn for him,
while soldier scoff and Jews deride?
Ah! Look how patiently he hangs
Jesus our Lord is crucified.
VERSE 3
How fast his hands and feet are nailed,
His blessed tongue with thirsty is tied,
His falling eyes are blind with blood
Jesus our Lord is crucified.
VERSE 4
His mother cannot reach his face,
she stand in helplessness beside,
her heart is martyr'd with her Son's
Jesus our Lord is crucified.
VERSE 5
O break, O break hard heart of mine,
Thy weak selflove and guilty pride,
his Pilate and his Judas were
Jesus our Lord is crucified.
VERSE 6
A broken heart, a fount of tears,
ask and they will not be denied,
a broken heart Love's Cradle is
Jesus our Lord is crucified.
VERSE 7
O Love of God! O Sin of Man
in this dread act your strength is tried
and victory remains with Love
for he our Love is crucified.
