2 Timothy 2:12: Lf we suffer, we shall also reign with Him

THou Man of affliction and woe,
What is it, to suffer with Thee?
Thy secret I languish to know,
Thy passion and death on the tree:
Thou, Jesus, alone canst explain,
And give me a sense of Thy load:
Ah, show me in darkness and pain
The heart of a crucified God.

If tempted in death, and forsook,
Thy burden unknowing I bear,
To God with astonishment look,
Nor find a return of my prayer;
