His appearance was so badly marred He could not have been recognized So disfigured, so beyond all human likeness That we hid our eyes Though he carried all our griefs and bore our sorrows We esteemed him not But despised him and considered him afflicted And as one reviled by God Though all of us have gone astray Though all have turned to their own ways The Lord has laid our wickedness on him His punishment has brought us peace And crushed for our iniquities He died to save his people from their sin He was stricken, and though pierced for our transgressions He did not lash out But was silent, like a lamb led to the slaughter So he opened not his mouth The might of Yahweh stands revealed And by his wounds we are all healed He offered up his soul to death He poured it out till none was left He died but now shall rise and surely see The many he has righteous made And satisfied, his work surveyed The man of sorrows evermore shall be On high, exalted, lifted up The righteous servant raised above His might hand shall work the will of God The nations all shall hear and see Astonished at his victory The kings of men will shut their mouths in awe
