Story Behind the Song
We did this remix for a Good Friday service
to be held in our parent church. The "vibe"
of the service warranted a gentle
accompaniment, and a change of words, so we
wrote another set. We sang the first verse
(which has the same words as our other mix)
in line/response format to teach the
congregation the tune. This track has
proved useful for us on other occasions too,
because the first verse of this track can
be used as a teaching track when we want to
use the other mix of Jesu grant me, and aren't
sure if people know the hymn or not.
Lyrics
Jesu grant me this, I pray
Ever in Your heart to stay
Let me evermore abide
Hidden in Your wounded side.
Hidden in Your wounded side.
In Your tortured agony
You bring us eternity
Crushing evil, hate and pride
Showing us Your wounded side.
Showing us Your wounded side.
Crucified on Calvary's hill,
Let me love You deeper still,
Bring me home, yes, be my guide,
To Your heart and wounded side.
To Your heart and wounded side.
Longing for Your Paradise
Coming when the timing's right
Sweet surroundings You provide
In Your heart and wounded side.
In Your heart and wounded side.
