Despised is the Man of grief,
Rejected, and denied belief
By them whose sorrows he hath worn—
For whom he bears the bitter scorn,
The shameful robe, the scourge, the thorn!
All we, like sheep, have gone astray,
And turned aside from wisdom’s way;
But he the path of death hath trod,
And humbly kissed affliction’s rod,
To lead our stricken souls to God.
Oh; let us cast each vice away,
Beneath the cross each passion lay;
With contrite heart and weeping eye,
Behold the Saviour lifted high,
And every sin and folly fly!
