Come, sinners, take a nearer view,
Of him whom ye despise;
Think of the yearnings of his heart,
The pity of his eyes.
Come, ye bewildered souls, and see
The eternal Son of God,
Your sins sustaining on the cross,
And bearing all the load.
Come ye who fear the sting of death,
And dread the vengeance due;
See there the Lamb a victim made,
He sheds his blood for you.
Come ye who have the Saviour seen,
But see him now no more,
Look, and with expectation wait,
Till he that sight restore.
