One man sings The Crucifixion - The Mystery of the Divine Humiliation - John Stainer
One man sings 'And when they were come' and 'The Mystery of the Divine Humiliation' from Stainer's The Crucifixion.
Lyrics:
Narrator
And when they had come to the place called Calvary
There they crucified Him – they crucified Him.
And the malefactors – one on the right, and the other on the left.
Hymn – The Mystery of the Divine Humiliation
Cross of Jesus, cross of sorrow,
Where the blood of Christ was shed,
Perfect Man on thee was tortured,
Perfect God on thee has bled!
Here the King of all the ages,
Throned in light ere worlds could be,
Robed in mortal flesh is dying,
Crucified by sin for me.
O mysterious condescending!
O abandoment sublime!
Very God Himself is bearing
All the sufferings of time!
Evermore for human failure
By his passion we can plead;
God has borne all mortal anguish,
Surely he will know our need.
This all human thought surpassing
This is earth's most awful hour,
God has taken mortal weakness!
God has laid aside his power!
Once the Lord of brilliant seraphs,
Winged with love to do his will,
Now the scorn of all his creatures,
And the aim of every ill.
Up in heaven, sublimest glory
Circled round him from the first;
But the earth finds none to serve him,
None to quench his raging thirst.
Who shall fathom that descending,
From the rainbow-circled throne,
Down to earth's most base profaning,
Dying desolate alone.
From the “Holy, Holy, Holy,
We adore Thee, O most High,”
Down to earth’s blaspheming voices
And the shout of “Crucify.”
Cross of Jesus, cross of sorrow,
Where the blood of Christ was shed,
Perfect Man on thee did suffer,
Perfect God on thee has bled!
