Hymn 142

Did Christ o'er sinners weep?

Kristi sun f’ẹlẹṣẹ

Meter S.M (6.6.8.6) Lenti, Ironupiwada
  1. Did Christ o'er sinners weep?
    And shall our cheeks be dry?
    Let floods of penitential grief
    Burst forth from every eye.

  2. The son of God in tears
    Angels with wonder see!
    Be thou astonished, O my soul,
    He shed those tears for thee.

  3. He wept, that we might weep;
    Each sin demands a tear;
    In heaven alone no sin is found,
    And there's no weeping there.
