For He Grew Up Like A Tender Plant (Isaiah 53)

NS1026
 
Intro:
For He grew up like a tender plant before Him,
And like a root out of dry ground.
No attracting form that we should look upon Him,
Nor appearance that we should desire Him.
 
Verse:
Like one from whom men hide their faces,
He was despised; and we did not esteem Him.
Smitten of God and afflicted.
And by His stripes we have been healed.
 
Countermelody:
We all like sheep have gone astray;
Each one has turned to his own way,
But He will see the fruit of resurrection,
And He will be satisfied.
