Hymnal: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, in Three Books #II.CXXXVII (1793) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, in Three Books First Line: Behold, the blind their sight receive! Lyrics: 1 Behold, the blind their sight receive!
Behold, the dead awake and live!
The dumb speak wonders, and the lame
Leap like the hart, and bless his name.
2 Thus doth th' eternal spirit own
And seal the mission of the Son;
The Father vindicates his cause,
While He hangs bleeding on the cross.
3 He dies; the heav'ns in mourning stood;
He rises, and appears a God:
Behold the Lord ascending high,
No more to bleed, no more to die!
4 Hence, and for ever from my heart
I bid my doubts and fears depart;
And to those hands my soul resign
Which bear credentials so divine. Languages: English
