571. "Behold my Servant whom I upheld"

1 Behold, with wondering eyes,
The Servant of the Lord;
On wings of love he flies,
His counsels to unfold!
He comes, he comes with truth and grace!
And Zion shall behold his face.

2 Behold him as your Head;
Your Husband, and your Friend;
Your Saviour, and your God,
Your Way, your Life, your End.
Behold him as your Shepherd dear,
And on him rest when danger’s near.

3 Behold him as your King,
Whose laws are peace and love;
Mercy and judgment sing,
And set your minds above.
Behold him as your great High Priest,
With Zion’s name upon his breast.

4 Your Counsellor to plead,
Your Prophet he to teach;
A Daysman he is made,
To make up every breach.
On him depend; before him fall;
Behold him as your All in All.
