For me Thy brow is crownèd

With thorns, and Thou'rt disownèd

By men, and bear'st all patiently.

Into death's jaws Thou springest,

Deliv'rance to me bringest

From such a monster dire.

My death away Thou takest,

Thy grave its grave Thou makest;

Of love, O unexampled fire!

I'm bound, my Saviour, ever,
