In Gethsemane Alone

Composer: Samuel Reed, 1912

Oh

what won­drous love I see

Freely shown for you and me

By the One who did atone!

Just to show His match­less grace

Jesus suf­fered for the race

In Geth­se­ma­ne

alone.

Oh

what love

match­less love

Oh

what love for me was shown!

His for­ev­er I will be

For the love He gave to me

When He suf­fered all alone.

Tarry here

He told the three

Tarry here and watch for Me

But they heard no bit­ter moan;

For the three dis­ci­ples slept

While my lov­ing Sav­ior wept

In Geth­se­ma­ne

alone.

Long in ang­uish deep was He

Weeping there for you and me

For our sin to Him was known;

We should love Him ev­er­more

For the ang­uish that He bore

In Geth­se­ma­ne

alone.
