O Sacred Head Now Wounded trio a cappella A Cappella - Digital Sheet Music

SKU: A0.1395890

This song is great for Lent, Palm Sunday and especially Good Friday. I have added an interesting intro. There are lots of lyrics out there, but I used the ones by Alexander and then changed some of the lyrics and added verse 2.

Lyrics:

O Sacred Head
A crown of thorns
Placed on Your Head
Now wounded

O sacred Head, now wounded,
with grief and shame weighed down,
now scornfully surrounded
with thorns, Your only crown;
O Jesus Christ, how painful
the thorns that pierce your head
your face is filled with sorrow
as you soon face your death

O sacred Head, now wounded
They stripped you of your clothes
Cast lots to claim their prizes
They put you on a show
You carried the cross of burdens
Of all who lived in sin
You died to save their sorrows
Their new life would begin

Be Thou my consolation,
my shield when I must die;
remind me of Your passion
when my last hour draws nigh.
Mine eyes shall then behold you,
the cross at calvary
you hung there for our sorrows
you gave your life for me.
