Cross of Jesus, cross of sorrow,
Where the blood of Christ was shed,
Perfect man on thee did suffer,
Perfect God on thee has bled!
(from: Cross of Jesus, Cross of Sorrow
Words: William John Sparrow-Simpson, 1887
Music: John Stainer, 1887
This hymn was created for inclusion in Stainer’s oratorio, “The Crucifixion.”)
