Once our blessed Christ of beauty
Was
veiled off from human view;
But
through suffering, death and sorrow
He
has rent the veil in two.
Refrain
O
behold the Man of Sorrows,
O
behold Him in plain view;
Lo!
He is the mighty Conqueror,
Since
He rent the veil in two.
Lo!
He is the mighty Conqueror,
Since
He rent the veil in two.
2
Yes,
He is with God the Father,
Interceding
there for you;
For
He is the Well beloved
Since
He rent the veil in two.
3
Holy
angels bow before Him,
Men
of earth give praises due;
For
He is the mighty Conqueror
Since
He rent the veil in two.
