CROFT'S 136TH-William Croft

Behold Him!
}
Look up! look up! ye weary ones,
Whose skies veil' in night,
For He who knows the path you tread
Will yet restore the light;
Look up! and hail the dawning
Of hope's triumphant morning.
Chorus Behold Him! behold Him!
Your Saviour lives today;
Behold Him! behold Him!
The clouds have roll'd away.

The gifts ye bro't with loving hand
Your Lord will not disown;
Their odors sweet to heav'n shall rise
Like incense 'round His throne;
Look up! and hail the dawning
Of joy's transcendent morning.

Rejoice, the grave is overcome,
And lo! the angels sing;
The grandest triumph ever known
Has come thro' Christ our King;
All heav'n proclaims the dawning
Of love's all-glorious morning.
