371 - Lift Him Up

Lift Him up, ‘tis He that bids you,
Let the dying look and live;
To all weary, thirsting sinner,
Living waters will He gives;
And though once so meek and lowly,
Yet the Prince of heaven was He;
And the blind, who grope in darkness,
Through the blood of Christ shall see.

Refrain

Lift Him up, the risen Savior,


High amid the waiting throng;


Lift Him up, ‘tis He that speaketh,


Now He bids you flee from wrong.

2
Lift Him up, this precious Savior,
Let the multitude behold;
They with willing hearts shall seek Him,
He will draw them to His fold;
They shall gather from the wayside,
Hastening on with joyuos feet,
They shall bear the cross of Jesus,
And shall find salvation sweet.
3
Lift Him up in all His glory,
“Tis the Son of God on high
Lift Him up, His love shall draw them,
E’en the careless shall draw nigh;
Let them hear again the story
Of the cross, the death of shame;
And from tongue tongue repeat it;
Mighty throngs shall bless His name.
4
O then lift Him up in singing,
Lift the Savior up in prayer
He, the glorious Redeemer,
All the sins of men did bear;
Yes, the young shall bow before Him,
And the old their voices raise,
All the deaf shall hear hosanah;
And the dumb shall shout His praise.
