[Happy might I station'd be]
And sitting down they watched Him there.
—xxvii. 36.
Happy might I station'd be
Near the ignominious tree!
Lamb of God my suit admit,
Place me at Thy wounded feet:
Here I would through life abide,
Watching with the Crucified,
Fix'd in silent wonder gaze
On Thy marr'd yet heavenly face:
Near the ignominious tree!
Lamb of God my suit admit,
Place me at Thy wounded feet:
Here I would through life abide,
Watching with the Crucified,
Fix'd in silent wonder gaze
On Thy marr'd yet heavenly face:
Humbly at Thy cross adore,
Feel its crucifying power,
Catch the sanctifying blood,
Die with an expiring God!
Give me thus Thy death to see,
Till my soul is all like Thee,
Meet to live the life above,
Swallow'd up in praise and love.
Feel its crucifying power,
Catch the sanctifying blood,
Die with an expiring God!

Till my soul is all like Thee,
Meet to live the life above,
Swallow'd up in praise and love.
