Behold the Man
Wounded and bruised, crowned with thorns.
He was despised, rejected,
He was despised and rejected.
Behold the Man
Man of sorrows acquainted with grief.
We hid our faces from Him,
We hid our faces from Him.

We did not know that it was for our sins He died,
That for us the Son of God was crucified,
That in love He bore our sorrow and pain
And in love He willingly suffered.
Behold the Man
Suff’ring in silence, bearing our shame.
We hid our faces from Him,
We hid our faces from Him.

We did not know that this was God the Father’s plan,
Born of love to being redemption down to man,
That in love He gave His only Son
So that we might be forgiven.
Behold the Man
Risen in Glory, coming to reign
By the Father exalted,
Crowned with glory and honour.
Behold the Man
King of kings and Lord of lords,
Through all creation Jesus Christ is Lord!
