Author: Sarah Bache Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8964 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: "See how He loved!" exclaimed the Jews Lyrics: 1 "See how He loved!" exclaimed the Jews,
As tender tears from Jesus fell;
My grateful heart the thought pursues,
And on the theme delights to dwell.
2 See how He loved, who traveled on,
Teaching the doctrine from the skies;
Who bade disease and pain be gone,
And called the sleeping dead to rise.
3 See how He loved, who, firm yet mild,
Patient endured the scoffing tongue;
Though oft provoked, he ne’er reviled,
Or did His greatest foe a wrong.
4 See how He loved, who never shrank
From toil or danger, pain or death;
Who all the cup of sorrow drank,
And meekly yielded up His breath.
5 Such love can we unmoved survey?
O may our breasts with ardor glow
To tread His steps, His laws obey,
And thus our warm affections show. Languages: English Tune Title: OMBERSLEY
