GOOD FRIDAY MORNING by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: UP THY HILL OF SORROWS
Last Line: TO A THRONE.
Subject(s): GOOD FRIDAY; HOLIDAYS; HOLY WEEK;

UP Thy Hill of Sorrows
Thou all alone,
Jesus, man's Redeemer,
Climbing to a Throne:
Thro' the world triumphant,
Thro' the Church in pain,
Which think to look upon Thee
No more again.

Upon my hill of sorrows
I, Lord, with Thee,
Cheered, upheld, yea carried
If a need should be:
Cheered, upheld, yea carried,
Never left alone,
Carried in Thy heart of hearts
To a throne.
