Isaiah 53 

by Jerry Rectenwald (copyrighted)

 

 (chorus)       By His wounds we are healed, by His wounds we are healed

He was pierced for our sins, crushed for our iniquities

And punished that we might have peace

And by His wounds we are healed

 

He had no beauty that we should desire Him

A Man of sorrows, rejected by men

Surely He took on our infirmities and carried the cross of our pain

 

We all, like sheep, have gone astray

Each of us turned to his own way

And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all

 

(chorus)

 

And when His suffering is all through, He will see the light of life

The prophecy’s fulfilled for all to see

The empty tomb testifies

 

(chorus)
