(1787)
Mourn, mourn, ye saints,
As if you see,
Your Savior dear nailed to the tree.
A bitter death He did endure,
To save the souls of men secure.

 

(1806)
Mourn, mourn, ye saints,
Where-e'er you see,
Your Savior dear nailed to the tree.
A cruel death He did endure,
To save the souls of men secure.
