Passion Panorama - Mark's Gospel (20)

Tune: Dundee

('O God of Bethel, by whose hand')

Mark 15 v.33-41 parts

*******

Noon-tide darkness o'er all the land

God's judgement, heavy hand

See there on Jesus our sins laid

On cross He our price paid

 

Calling at three (p.m.) that afternoon

His sufferings over soon

My God, my God, O why have you

Forsaken me here? true

 

Jesus did die, Temple curtain

Was torn in two right then

Top to bottom, God's way open

To children, women, men

 

A centurion who Him heard

This his witness, his word

That truly this man was the Son

Of God, a great work done

 

And too witnesses standing there

They in that scene did share

Mary Magdalene, and Mary

James, [and] Joses mother, see

 

And Salome, and more women

Who did minister then

To Him, they faithful followers

Their love for Him bestirs
