Go to dark Gethsemane,
Ye that feel the Tempter's power;
Your Redeemer's conflict see;
Watch with him one bitter hour;
Turn not from his griefs away,
Learn of Jesus Christ to pray.

Follow to the judgement-hall;
View the Lord of life arraigned;
Oh, the wormwood and the gall!
Oh, the pangs his Soul-sustained!
Shun not suffering, shame, or loss;
Learn of him to bear the cross.

Calvary's mournful mountain climb;
There, adoring at his Feet,
Mark that miracle of time,
God's own Sacrifice complete:
'It is finished,' hear him cry;—
Learn of Jesus Christ to die.

Early hasten to the tomb,
Where they laid his breathless Clay;
All is solitude and gloom,
Who hath taken him away?
Christ is risen;—he meets our eyes;
Saviour, teach us so to rise!
