178. The Unveiled Christ

Verse 1

Once our blessed Christ of beauty

Was veiled off from human view;

But through suffering, death, and sorrow

He has rent the veil in two.

Chorus 1

O behold the Man of Sorrows!

O behold Him in plain view!

Lo! He is the mighty Conqueror

Since He rent the veil in two;

Lo! He is the mighty Conqueror

Since He rent the veil in two.

Verse 2

Yes, He is with God, the Father,

Interceding there for you;

For He is the Well-beloved

Since He rent the veil in two.

Chorus 3

O behold the Man of Sorrows!

O behold Him in plain view!

Lo! He is the mighty Conqueror

Since He rent the veil in two;

Lo! He is the mighty Conqueror

Since He rent the veil in two.

Verse 4

Holy angels bow before Him,

Men of earth give praises due;

For He is the mighty Conqueror

Since He rent the veil in two

Chorus 5

O behold the Man of Sorrows!

O behold Him in plain view!

Lo! He is the mighty Conqueror

Since He rent the veil in two;

Lo! He is the mighty Conqueror

Since He rent the veil in two.
