'Mid the Stillness of the Night

View/print sheet music:     SATB Hymn

    Lyrics:

    'Mid the stillness of the night
    Kneeling in Gethsemane
    Love unmeasured fought our fight
    And claimed our victory

    His the anguish of our grief
    His the pain of countless years
    Ours the contrite heart's relief
    Thus born of blood and tears

    'neath the burden of a cross
    'neath the weight of all our debt
    Calvary's way he walked for us
    And ne'er shall we forget

    Jesus, Lord, unfailing Friend
    Thou who lovest ceaselessly
    Thou who givest life to men
    We do remember thee
