Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.736
First Line: When our heads are bowed with woe,
When our heads are bowed with woe,
When our bitter tears o'erflow,
When we mourn the lost, the dear-----
Jesus, Son of David, hear !
2 Thou our feeble flesh hast worn,
Thou our mortal griefs hast borne ;
Thou hast shed the human tear :
Jesus, Son of David, hear !
3 When the heart is sad within,
With the thought of all its sin ;
When the spirit shrinks with fear ;
Jesus, Son of David, hear !
4 Thou the shame, the grief, hast known ;
Though the sins were not Thine own,
Thou hast deigned their load to bear :
Jesus, Son of David, hear !
5 When our eyes grow dim in death,
When we heave the parting breath,
When our solemn doom is near-----
Jesus, Son of David, hear !
6 Thou hast bowed the dying head;
Thou the blood of life hast shed ;
Thou hast filled a mortal bier :
Jesus, Son of David, hear !
