I. Watts

L.M.

BEHOLD the Man! How glorious He!

Before His foes He stands unawed,

And without wrong or blasphemy,

He claims equality with God.

2

Behold the Man! by all condemned,

Assaulted by a host of foes;

His person and His claims condemned,

A Man of sufferings and of woes.

3

Behold the Man! He stands alone,

His foes are ready to devour;

Not one of all His friends will own

Their Master in His trying hour.

4

Behold the Man! though scorned below,

He bears the greatest name above;

The angels at His footstool bow,

And all His royal claims approve.
