The brazen serpent or Looking to JesusA
-
JohnB
-
So did the Hebrew prophet raiseC
The brazen serpent highD
The wounded felt immediate easeE
The camp forbore to dieD
-
Look upward in the dying hourF
And live the prophet criesG
But Christ performs a nobler cureH
When Faith lifts up her eyesG
-
High on the cross the Savior hungI
High in the heav'ns he reignsJ
Here sinners by th' old serpent stungI
Look and forget their painsJ
-
When God's own Son is lifted upK
A dying world revivesL
The Jew beholds the glorious hopeM
Th' expiring Gentile livesN
