1. Throned upon the awful Tree,/ King of grief, I watch with thee;/ Darkness veils thine anguished face,/ None its lines of woe can trace,/ None can tell what pangs unknown Hold thee silent and alone; 2. Silent through those three dread hours,/ Wrestling with the evil powers,/ Left alone with human sin,/ Gloom around thee and within,/ Till the appointed time is nigh,/ Till the Lamb of God may die. 3. Hark that cry that peals aloud/ Upward through the whelming cloud!/ Thou, the Father's only Son,/ Thou his own anointed One,/ Thou dost ask him - can it be? -/ "Why hast thou forsaken me?" 4. Lord, should fear and anguish roll/ Darkly o'er my sinful soul,/ Thou, who once wast thus bereft/ That thine own might ne'er be left,/ Teach me by that bitter cry/ In the gloom to know thee nigh./ Amen.
