Christ My Song - 558
Lead us, O Lord, to Bethlehem - Show us Jesus
(Horatius Bonar/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)
Show us Jesus.
1. Lead us, O Lord, to Bethlehem;
show us the child there born,
the Son to us there given:
there show us Christ the Lord,
reveal the love of God. PDF - Midi
2. Take us, O Lord, to Nazareth;
show us the tender plant,
the root from the dry ground:
there show us Christ the Lord,
reveal the love of God.
3. Lord, guide us to Gethsemane;
show us the sweat of blood,
make known thy agony:
there show us Christ the Lord,
reveal the love of God.
4. Lord, bring us on to Calvary;
display the cross of shame,
show us the sacrifice:
there show us Christ the Lord,
reveal the love of God.
5. Lord, take us to the empty tomb,
and say, He is not here;
lo, he is risen indeed:
there show us Christ the Lord,
reveal the love of God.
6. Place us at last on Olivet,
whereon his feet shall stand
when he shall come again:
there show us Christ the Lord,
reveal the love of God.
