SACRED POETRY. FORSAKEN. "He waswounded for our transgressions. . And With IBs stripes we are healed".— ls. liii S. IN anguish mortal could not bear, ; Loon the cross Immanuel dies ! I Crowned with the thorns of sacrifice He drains the cup of Earth's despair. "Within Gethsemane's sacred shade The angel stood a little space ; ! "While, with the blood-sweat on His face, The Man of Sorrows prostrate prayed. - No more — the angel comes no more ! In silence bowed before the Throne, His hosts attend His dying moan, Withdrawn from Him whom they adore. " Forsaken, O my God !" He cries. That cry the temple's veil hath rent ; The heavens, in awful stillness bent, Are darkened with the death He dies ! The horror-stricken universe, Like a vast sea in wild unrest, Transfixed with wide upheaving breast, Feels the slow-lifting of the curie. Hark ! while His dumb wounds intercede For, man who led his Lord to die, There comes an answering, human cry : " This was the Son of God indeed 1" The Christ ! the Christ ! Rejecting earth, ■ In: vain for thee a second flood ; Yet in the washing of His blood Thy children find a second birth ! Flee, frail and trembling heart of mine, To Him, thy Refuge and thy Strength ! The solemn shadows lift at length, And even Sinai's summits shine : Shine in the glorious beams that break Around the cross of Him who saith : "I have redeemed thy soul from death ; Forsaken, I will ne'er forsake !"
