COME AND SEE

Come and see what I can see

Look at three crosses if you will

Someone is dying for you and me

Between two thieves on Calvary hill

Come and see His lovely head

Crowned there with piercing thorn

Look at His blood running red

Who is He the people scorn?

Hands with nails pierced through

Fixes Him to rugged tree

And His feet nailed there too

What sight is this to come and see?

Come and hear what He cries

The words He utters with dying breath

It is finished; then closes eyes

And bows His blessed head in death

Come and see now rolled away

From empty grave the mighty stone

And in its darkness where He lay

His death shroud lying all alone

Come and see as the disciples stare

At this sight so amazing

This Man ascending in the air

Leaving us behind here gazing

Call out now His blessed name

Jesus Christ the crucified

The Son of God put to shame

It was for us He bled and died

There is life in Him; He will save

Claim Him Lord on bended knee

No hope for you beyond the grave

If this Man you will not come and see
