See how he loved! exclaimed the Jews

Author: Bache Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 61 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 9:35-36 Lyrics: 1 See how he loved! exclaimed the Jews, As tender tears from Jesus fell: My grateful heart the theme pursues, And on his love delights to dwell. 2 See how he loved! who traveled on, Teaching the doctrine from the skies; He bade disease and pain begone, And called the sleeping dead to rise. 3 See how he loved! who, firm yet mild, With patience bore the scoffing tongue; Though oft provoked, he ne'er reviled, Nor did his enemies a wrong. 4 See how he loved! who never shrank From toil or danger, pain or death; He all the cup of sorrow drank, And meekly yielded up his breath. 5 Such love shall we unmoved survey? Oh, may our breasts with ardor glow, To tread his steps, his laws obey, And thus the love of Jesus show! Topics: Christ Life, Office, and Example; The Love of Jesus
