08 Apr 97 - 11:59 PM (#4028) Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: O SACRED HEAD NOW WOUNDED From: rich r O SACRED HEAD NOW WOUNDED words ascribed to Bernard of Clairvaux, 1140; translations by Paul Gerhardt, 1656 and J W Alexander 1830. The tune is "Passion Chorale" from St. Mathewws Passion by J S Bach, 1729. The guitar chords are from Rise Up Singing (Because All Men Are Brothers recorded by Peter Paul & Mary). O sacred head now wounded, With grief and shame weighed down Now scornfully surrounded with thorns, Thine only crown; O sacred head what glory, what bliss till now was Thine Yet though despised and gory, I joy to call thee mine
What thou my LOrd hast suffered was all for sinners' gain Mine, mine was the transgression, but Thine the deadly pain Lo, here I fall, my Savior, 'tis I deserve Thy place Look on me with Thy favor, vouchsafe to me Thy grace
What language shall I borrow To thank Thee dearest Friend For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end? O make me Thine forever; and should I fainting be, Lord let me never, never outlive my love to Thee. F Dm G C Am E Am Am F Dm G C Am E Am Am F G F C F Dm A A G Am D G F G C C
