Author: May E. Warren Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1252 (1886) Scripture: John 3:14-15 First Line: Lift him up, 'tis he that bids you Lyrics: 1 Lift him up, 'tis he that bids you,
Let the dying look and live;
To all weary, thirsting sinners,
Living waters will he give;
And though once so meek and lowly,
Yet the Prince of heav'n was he;
And the blind, who grope in darkness,
Through the blood of Christ shall see.
Chorus:
Lift him up, the risen Saviour,
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 Saviour,
Let the multitude behold;
They with willing hearts shall seek him,
He will draw them to his fold;
They shall gather from the wayside,
Hast'ning with joyous feet,
They shall bear the cross of Jesus,
And shall find salvation sweet. [Chorus]
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 to tongue repeat it;
Mighty throngs shall bless his name. [Chorus]
4 O then lift him up in singing,
Lift the Saviour 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 hosannah;
And the dumb shall shout his praise. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Missionary Songs Tune Title: LIFT HIM UP
