Arise, thou sun so looked-for, O'er this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted, We plead, O Lord, to see The day of our redemption, And ever be with thee.

Behold where, in a mortal form

Author: Enfield Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 210 hymnals Scripture: Titus 2:14 Lyrics: 1 Behold where, in a mortal form, Appears each grace divine! The virtues, all in Jesus met, With mildest radiance shine. 2 To spread the rays of heavenly light, To give the mourner joy, To preach glad tidings to the poor, Was his divine employ. 3 Lowly in heart, to all his friends A friend and servant found; He washed their feet, he wiped their tears, And healed each bleeding wound. 4 'Mid keen reproach and cruel scorn Patient and meek he stood; His foes, ungrateful, sought his life: He labored for their good. 5 In the last hour of deep distress, Before his Father's throne, With soul resigned, he bowed, and said, Thy will, not mine, be done! 6 Be Christ our pattern and our guide; His image may we bear: Oh, may we tread his holy steps, His joy and glory share.
