Isaiah 53:3, " He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not."
Psalm 56: 8 (NLT), "You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book."
Great God of sorrows
Be thou ever so near
Let Thy presence surround
Weep with me each tear
Heart-heavy with grief
Ripped apart by pain
Unceasing may thine habitation be
Whilst the suffering doth remain.
Great God of sorrows
An altar I build to Thee
I lay down my anguish
My wails and keens
Envelop the sacrifice
Let holy fire burn in lament
May Thou and Thou alone be worshipped
And a hunger for holiness in us ferment.
All power and majesty be thine forever. Amen.
