As when the Hebrew prophet raised

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 18 hymnals Topics: Canticles and Scripture Paraphrases Lyrics: 1 As when the Hebrew prophet raised the brazen serpent high the wounded looked and straight were cured; the people ceased to die, 2 so from the Saviour on the cross a healing virtue flows; who looks to him with living faith is saved from endless woes, 3 for God gave up the Son to death, so generous was that love, that all the faithful might enjoy eternal life above. 4 Not to condemn us, or to judge, the Lamb of God appeared; no weapons in his hands are seen, nor voice of terror heard. 5 Christ came to raise our fallen state, and our lost hopes restore; faith leads us to the mercy sea, and bids us fear no more.
