¶Liedtext

The Savior comes! No outward pomp bespeaks his presence nigh; No earthly beauties in Him shine To draw the carnal eye. Fair as a blooming, tender flower Amidst the desert grows ; So slighted and despised by man The heavenly Savior rose. They held Him as condemned by heaven, An outcast from his God; While for their sins He groaned and bled Beneath his Father's rod. With sinners in the dust He lay, The rich a grave supplied; Unspotted was His blameless life, Unstained by sin He died. His soul rejoicing shall behold The purchase of his pain: And every sinner by Him saved Shall bless Messiah’s reign. He died to bear the guilt of men That sin might be forgiven; He lives to bless them and defend And plead their cause in heaven. James Robertson, 1751 This version from Belknap’s Sacred Poetry, 1795, Hymn 239
