Deep Thy sorrow then, Lord Jesus,
Deeper far than thought can reach;
Grief intense and suff’rings holy,
Far beyond all tongues to teach.

None could follow there, blest Savior,
When redemption’s work was done;
For those suff’rings, deep, unfathomed,
Were, Lord Jesus, Thine alone!

Thou didst measure then sin’s distance,
Darkness, wrath and curse were Thine;
Man-betrayed, by God forsaken;
Thus we learn Thy love divine!

Hymns, #93, “Lord, we treasure with affection / All Thy path of sorrow here, ” is also good. This hymn is better than Hymns, #95 in continuing Hymns, #158. The fourth stanza of Hymns, #93 is the highest, speaking of sin’s distance and how far-reaching it is: “Thou didst measure then sin’s distance, / Darkness, wrath and curse were Thine; / Man-betrayed, by God forsaken; / Thus we learn Thy love divine! ” The contents of this stanza show the far-reaching scope of sin. Even though the Lord went through all these sufferings, we do not know the far-reaching scope of sin. Nevertheless, the Lord experienced all these things personally, measuring out the distance of sin, enabling us to see the length of sin’s distance: darkness, wrath, and the curse. It is not until we have such a realization that we can know the loveliness of the Lord. If we want to touch the feeling of a meeting, we must at least understand the meaning expressed through the words of the hymns.

When Thou didst for sins atone;
