O come and mourn with me awhile;\nSee, Mary calls us to her side;\nO come and let us mourn with her;\nJesus, our love, is crucified.\n2. Have we no tears to shed for him,\nWhile soldiers scoff and Jews deride?\nAh! Look how patiently he hangs;\nJesus, our love is crucified.\n3. How fast his feet and hands are nailed:\nHis blessèd tongue with thirst is tied;\nHis failing eyes are blind with blood;\nJesus, our love, is crucified.\n4. Seven times, he spoke, seven words of love,\nAnd all three hours his silence cried\nFor mercy on the souls of men;\nJesus, our love, is crucified.\n5. O break, O break, hard heart of mine:\nThy weak self-love and guilty pride\nHis Pilate and his Judas were;\nJesus, our love, is crucified.\n6. A broken heart, a fount of tears,\n64\nAsk, and they will not be denied;\nA broken heart, love’s cradle is;\nJesus, our love, is crucified.\n7. O love of God! O sin of man!\nIn this dread act our strength is tried;\nAnd victory remains with love;\nJesus, our love, is crucified.
