Great God of Sorrows


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.
