But how, oh few believe it, who will listen?
|
To whom will God reveal His saving power?
|
It was the will of the Lord that His servant
|
Should grow like a plant, taking root in dry ground
|
|
He had no beauty or majesty to make us notice Him
|
He wasn't attractive and nothing would draw us to Him
|
We ignored Him that He was nothing
|
|
He is the suffering servant, he is the son of God
|
|
It was our grief He bore
|
Our sorrows, that weighed Him down
|
And we thought His troubles
|
Were a punishment from God
|
But He was wounded and beaten for our sins
|
He was chastised that we might have peace
|
He was lashed, and we were healed
|
|
We are the ones
|
Who strayed away like sheep without shephard
|
We who left God's path to follow our own
|
God laid on Him guilt and sins of everyone of us
|
|
He was oppressed, and He was afflicted
|
He was brought as a lamb to the slaughter
|
But He opened not His mouth
|
He's the servant who is love
|
He's the servant who set us free
|
He is the suffering servant, the Son of God
|
