Isaiah 53:5-8

• [Isa 53:5] Great Healer, The

  Oh, when shall sickness and disease Their persecuting warfare cease; And weakness die, and grief and pain, And death itself at last be slain? Doubt not that better day is near, The suffering sons of earth to hear; Disease and pain are born of sin. Their remedy is found within. Let Christ, descending from above, Become incarnate in Thy love. The inward ills and wrong subdue, And make Thy fallen nature new. Let the great Healer make Thee free From sin’s corroding malady; And then the life that’s in the soul Shall make the suffering body whole.

• [Isa 53:5] He Was Nailed To The Cross For Me

  What a wonderful, wonderful Savior, Who would die on the cross for me! Freely shedding His precious lifeblood, That the sinner might be made free. Refrain He was nailed to the cross for me, He was nailed to the cross for me; On the cross crucified for me He died; He was nailed to the cross for me. Thus He left His heavenly glory, To accomplish His Father’s plan; He was born of the virgin Mary, Took upon Him the form of man. Refrain He was wounded for our transgressions, And He carried our sorrows, too; He’s the Healer of ev’ry sickness, This He came to the world to do. Refrain So He gave His life for others In Redeeming this world from sin, And He’s gone to prepare a mansion, That at last we may enter in. Refrain

• [Isa 53:5] Heal Us, Emmanuel

  Heal us, Emmanuel, hear our prayer [originally, Heal us, Emmanuel, here we are] We wait to feel Thy touch; Deep wounded souls to Thee repair, And Savior, we are such. Our faith is feeble, we confess We faintly trust Thy Word; But wilt Thou pity us the less? Be that far from Thee, Lord! Remember him who once applied With trembling for relief “Lord, I believe,” with tears he cried; “O help my unbelief!” She, too, who touched Thee in the press And healing virtue stole, Was answered, “Daughter, go in peace; Thy faith has made thee whole.” Concealed amid the gathering throng, She would have shunned Thy view; And if her faith was firm and strong, Had strong misgivings too. Like her, with hopes and fears we come To touch Thee if we may; O send us not despairing home; Send none unhealed away.

• [Isa 53:5] How Beauteous Were The Marks Divine

  How beauteous were the marks divine, That in Thy meekness used to shine; That lit Thy lonely pathway, trod In wondrous love, O Lamb of God! Oh! who like Thee, so calm, so bright; So pure, so made to live in light? Oh, who like Thee did ever go So patient through a world of woe? Oh, who like Thee so humbly bore The scorn, the scoffs of men, before? So meek, forgiving, godlike, high, So glorious in humility? And all Thy life’s unchanging years, A man of sorrows and of tears, The cross, where all our sins were laid, Upon Thy bending shoulders weighed. E’en death, which sets the prisoner free, Was pain, and scoff, and scorn to Thee; Yet love through all Thy torture glowed, And mercy with Thy lifeblood flowed. Oh, in Thy light be mine to go, Illumining all my way of woe! And give me ever on the road To trace Thy footsteps, Son of God!

• [Isa 53:5] I Lay My Sins On Jesus

  I lay my sins on Jesus, the spotless Lamb of God; He bears them all, and frees us from the accursèd load; I bring my guilt to Jesus, to wash my crimson stains White in His blood most precious, till not a stain remains. I lay my wants on Jesus; all fullness dwells in Him; He heals all my diseases, He doth my soul redeem: I lay my griefs on Jesus, my burdens and my cares; He from them all releases, He all my sorrows shares. I rest my soul on Jesus, this weary soul of mine; His right hand me embraces, I on His breast recline. I love the Name of Jesus, Immanuel, Christ, the Lord; Like fragrance on the breezes His Name abroad is poured. I long to be like Jesus, strong, loving, lowly, mild; I long to be like Jesus, the Father’s holy Child: I long to be with Jesus, amid the heavenly throng, To sing with saints His praises, to learn the angels’ song.

• [Isa 53:5] Jesus, I Will Ponder Now

  Jesus, I will ponder now On Your holy Passion; Let Your Spirit now endow Me for meditation. Grant that I in love and faith May the image cherish Of Your suffering, pain and death That I may not perish. Make me see Your great distress, Anguish, and affliction, Bonds and stripes and wretchedness And your crucifixion; Make me see how scourge and rod, Spear and nails, did wound You, How You died for those, O God, Who with thorns had crowned You. Let, O Lord, not thus alone Make me see your Passion, But its cause to me make known And its termination. For I also and my sin Wrought your deep affliction; This the shameful cause has been Of Your crucifixion. Let me view Your pain and loss With repentant grieving, Nor prepare again your cross By unholy living. May I give you love for love! Hear me, O my Savior, That I may in Heav’n above Sing your praise forever.

• [Isa 53:5] More Marred Than Any Man’s

  More marred than any man’s The Savior’s visage see; Was ever sorrow like to His, Endured on Calvary! Oh, hear that piercing cry! What can its meaning be? “My God! my God! oh! why hast Thou In wrath forsaken Me?” Oh ’twas because our sins On Him by God were laid; He who Himself had never sinned For sinners, sin was made. Thus sin He put away By His one sacrifice Then, Conqueror o’er death and hell, He mounted to the skies. Therefore let all men know That God is satisfied; And sinners all who Jesus trust Through Him are justified.

• [Isa 53:5] My Sins Laid Open To The Rod

  My sins laid open to the rod, The back which from the law was free; And the eternal Son of God Received the stripes once due to me. No beam was in His eye, nor mote, Nor laid to Him was any blame; And yet His cheeks for me were smote— The cheeks that never blushed for shame. I pierced those sacred hands and feet That never touched or walked in sin; I broke the heart that only beat The souls of sinful men to win. That sponge of vinegar and gall Was placed by me upon His tongue; And when derision mocked His call, I stood that mocking crowd among. And yet His blood was shed for me, To be of sin the double cure; And balm there flows from Calvary’s tree That heals my guilt and makes me pure.

  Now, my soul, thy voice upraising, Tell in sweet and mournful strain How the Crucified, enduring Grief, and wounds, and dying pain, Freely of His love was offered, Sinless was for sinners slain. Scourged with unrelenting fury For the sins which we deplore, By His livid stripes He heals us, Raising us to fall no more; All our bruises gently soothing, Binding up the bleeding sore. See! His hands and feet are fastened So He makes His people free; Not a wound whence blood is flowing But a fount of grace shall be; Yea the very nails which nail Him Nail us also to the tree. Through His heart the spear is piercing, Though His foes have seen Him die; Blood and water thence are streaming In a tide of mystery, Water from our guilt to cleanse us, Blood to win us crowns on high. Jesu, may those precious fountains Drink to thirsting souls afford: Let them be our cup and healing, And at length our full reward; So a ransomed world shall ever Praise Thee, its redeeming Lord.

• [Isa 53:5] O Christ, What Burdens Bowed Thy Head

  O Christ, what burdens bowed Thy head! Our load was laid on Thee; Thou stoodest in the sinner’s stead, Didst bear all ill for me. A Victim led, Thy blood was shed; Now there’s no load for me. Death and the curse were in our cup: O Christ, ’twas full for Thee; But Thou hast drained the last dark drop, ’Tis empty now for me. That bitter cup, love drank it up; Now blessing’s draught for me. Jehovah lifted up His rod; O Christ, it fell on Thee! Thou wast sore stricken of Thy God; There’s not one stroke for me. Thy tears, Thy blood, beneath it flowed; Thy bruising healeth me. The tempest’s awful voice was heard, O Christ, it broke on Thee! Thy open bosom was my ward, It braved the storm for me. Thy form was scarred, Thy visage marred; Now cloudless peace for me. Jehovah bade His sword awake; O Christ, it woke ’gainst Thee! Thy blood the flaming blade must slake; Thine heart its sheath must be; All for my sake, my peace to make; Now sleeps that sword for me. For me, Lord Jesus, Thou hast died, And I have died in Thee! Thou’rt ris’n—my hands are all untied, And now Thou liv’st in me. When purified, made white and tried, Thy glory then for me!

• [Isa 53:6] I Was A Wandering Sheep

  I was a wandering sheep, I did not love the fold; I did not love my Shepherd’s voice, I would not be controlled. I was a wayward child, I did not love my home; I did not love my Father’s voice, I loved afar to roam. The Shepherd sought His sheep, The Father sought His child; They followed me o’er vale and hill, O’er deserts waste and wild; They found me nigh to death, Famished and faint and lone; They bound me with the bands of love, They saved the wand’ring one. They spoke in tender love, They raised my drooping head, They gently closed my bleeding wounds, My fainting soul they fed; They washed my filth away, They made me clean and fair; They brought me to my home in peace, The long sought wanderer. Jesus my Shepherd is: ’Twas He that loved my soul; ’Twas He that washed me in His blood, ’Twas He that made me whole. ’Twas He that sought the lost, That found the wand’ring sheep, ’Twas He that brought me to the fold, ’Tis He that still doth keep. No more a wandering sheep, I love to be controlled; I love my tender Shepherd’s voice, I love the peaceful fold. No more a wayward child, I seek no more to roam; I love my heavenly Father’s voice, I love, I love His home!

• [Isa 53:6] Like Sheep We Went Astray

  Like sheep we went astray, And broke the fold of God, Each wandering in a different way, But all the downward road. How dreadful was the hour When God our wanderings laid And did at once His vengeance pour, Upon the Shepherd’s head! How glorious was the grace When Christ sustained the stroke! His life and blood the Shepherd pays A ransom for the flock. His honor and His breath Were taken both away, Joined with the wicked in His death, And made as vile as they. But God shall raise His head O’er all the sons of men, And make Him see a numerous seed, To recompense His pain. “I’ll give Him,” saith the Lord, “A portion with the strong; He shall possess a large reward; And hold His honors long.”

• [Isa 53:7] A Lamb Goes Uncomplaining Forth

  A Lamb goes uncomplaining forth, The guilt of all men bearing; And laden with the sins of earth, None else the burden sharing! Goes patient on, grow weak and faint, To slaughter led without complaint, That spotless life to offer; Bears shame and stripes, and wounds and death, Anguish and mockery, and saith, “Willing all this I suffer.” This Lamb is Christ, the soul’s great Friend, The Lamb of God, our Savior; Him God the Father chose to send To gain for us His favor. “Go forth, My Son,” the Father saith, “And free men from the fear of death, From guilt and condemnation. The wrath and stripes are hard to bear, But by Thy Passion men shall share The fruit of Thy salvation.” “Yea, Father, yea, most willingly I’ll bear what Thou commandest; My will conforms to Thy decree, I do what Thou demandest.” O wondrous Love, what hast Thou done! The Father offers up His Son! The Son, content, descendeth! O Love, how strong Thou art to save! Thou beddest Him within the grave Whose word the mountains rendeth. From morn till eve my theme shall be Thy mercy’s wondrous measure; To sacrifice myself for Thee Shall be my aim and pleasure. My stream of life shall ever be A current flowing ceaselessly, Thy constant praise outpouring. I’ll treasure in my memory, O Lord, all Thou hast done for me, Thy gracious love adoring. Of death I am no more afraid, New life from Thee is flowing; Thy cross affords me cooling shade When noonday’s sun is glowing. When by my grief I am oppressed, On Thee my weary soul shall rest Serenely as on pillows. Thou art my Anchor when by woe My bark is driven to and fro On trouble’s surging billows. And when Thy glory I shall see And taste Thy kingdom’s pleasure, Thy blood my royal robe shall be, My joy beyond all measure. When I appear before Thy throne, Thy righteousness shall be my crown— With these I need not hide me. And there, in garments richly wrought As Thine own bride, I shall be brought To stand in joy beside Thee.
