| 1 When John in prison came to hear How great the works of Jesus were, Sent his Disciples for to know Their Saviour Christ, and own him too. 2 When they to Christ enquiring came, He bid them go to John again And shew to him where they had been, And tell the wonders they had seen. 3 The blind are made to see the light, The dead to feel his pow'r and might; The deaf to hear the dumb to talk, The lepres cleans'd, the lame to walk. 4 The poor they hear the gospel sound, Which heals the soul of every wound; They learn to know the way of peace, The way to endless happiness. 5 How happy and how bless'd are they Who know that Jesus is the way, They bear the cross and are resign'd To follow Christ with heart and mind. 6 Should we not praise the Lord our king? Who did salvation to us bring, Who pities men the fallen race, And came to make them heirs of grace. | Church Hymn Book: consisting of newly composed hymns with the addition of hymns and psalms, from other authors, carefully adapted for the use of public worship, and many other occasions (1st ed.) #XII (1816) |
