Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #107 (1814) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy 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'n's 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.
