Representative Text

1 Oh, the hearts all crushed and bleeding,
Who can pass them by unheeding,
Who resist the piteous pleading?

Chorus:
When mine eyes the king shall see,
Shall the waiting welcome be,
Ye have done it unto me?

2 Lo! our Lord has condescended,
To uplift the unbefriended,
And the poor man's cause defended.

Chorus:
When mine eyes the king shall see,
Shall the waiting welcome be,
Ye have done it unto me?

3 Come he to the pure and holy,
Or to save the sinners solely?
Lo! he loved the lost and lowly.

Chorus:
When mine eyes the king shall see,
May the waiting welcome be,
Ye have done it unto me.

4 When the ruin'd rescued races
Sit with us, in heavenly places,
Christ-like love shall crown the graces.

Chorus:
Then mine eyes the king shall see,
And the waiting welcome be,
Ye have done it unto me.
