Peruse the list of all the hymns that are included in the printed "ReClaim Hymnal for Church and Home" (Pew and Spiral Editions)

Go to Dark Gethsemane


1 Go to dark Gethsemane, All who feel the tempter's pow'r;
Your Redeemer's conflict see, Watch with him one bitter hour;
Turn not from his griefs away; Learn from Jesus Christ to pray.

2 Follow to the judgment hall; View the Lord of life arraigned;
Oh, the worm-wood and the gall! Oh, the pangs his soul sustained!
Shun not suff'ring, shame, or loss; Learn from him to bear the cross.

3 Calv'ry'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 from Jesus Christ to die.

4 Early hasten to the tomb Where they laid his breathless clay;
All is solitude and gloom; Who has taken him away?
Christ is ris'n! He meets our eyes. Savior, teach us so to rise.
