Isa | B |
- | |
Who has believed thy word | C |
Or thy salvation known | D |
Reveal thine arm Almighty Lord | E |
And glorify thy Son | F |
- | |
The Jews esteemed him here | G |
Too mean for their belief | H |
Sorrows his chief acquaintance were | I |
And his companion grief | H |
- | |
They turned their eyes away | J |
And treated him with scorn | K |
But 'twas their grief upon him lay | J |
Their sorrows he has borne | K |
- | |
'Twas for the stubborn Jews | L |
And Gentiles then unknown | D |
The God of justice pleased to bruise | L |
His best beloved Son | F |
- | |
But I'll prolong his days | M |
And make his kingdom stand | N |
My pleasure saith the God of grace | O |
Shall prosper in his hand | N |
- | |
His joyful soul shall see | P |
The purchase of his pain | Q |
And by his knowledge justify | R |
The guilty sons of men | S |
- | |
Ten thousand captive slaves | T |
Released from death and sin | U |
Shall quit their prisons and their graves | T |
And own his power divine | V |
- | |
Heav'n shall advance my Son | F |
To joys that earth denied | W |
Who saw the follies men had done | F |
And bore their sins and died | W |
