No Weight of Gold or Silver
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 53:3-6 Lyrics: 1 No weight of gold or silver
can measure human worth;
no soul secures its ransom
with all the wealth of earth;
no sinners find their freedom
but by the gift unpriced:
the Lamb of God unblemished,
the precious blood of Christ.
2 Our sins, our griefs and troubles,
he bore and made his own;
we hid our faces from him,
rejected and alone.
His wounds are for our healing,
our peace is by his pain.
Behold, the Man of Sorrows,
the Lamb for sinners slain!
3 In Christ the past is over;
a new world now begins.
With him we rise to freedom
who saves us from our sins.
We live by faith in Jesus
to make his glory known.
Behold, the Man of Sorrows,
the Lamb upon his throne!

Isaiah 53: How few receive with cordial faith
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 53 First Line: How few receive with cordial faith Lyrics:
How few receive with cordial faith
the tidings which we bring?
How few have seen the arm revealed
of heav’n’s eternal King?
The Saviour comes! no outward pomp
bespeaks his presence nigh;
No earthly beauty shines in him
to draw the carnal eye.
Fair as a beauteous tender flow’r
amidst the desert grows,
So slighted by a rebel race
the heav’nly Saviour rose.
Rejected and despised of men,
behold a man of woe!
Grief was his close companion still
through all his life below.
133
Yet all the griefs he felt were ours,
ours were the woes he bore:
Pangs, not his own, his spotless soul
with bitter anguish tore.
We held him as condemned by Heav’n,
an outcast from his God,
While for our sins he groaned, he bled,
beneath his Father’s rod.
His sacred blood hath washed our souls
from sin’s polluted stain;
His stripes es have healed us, and his death
revived our souls again.
We all, like sheep, had gone astray
in ruin’s fatal road:
On him were our transgressions laid;
he bore the mighty load.
Wronged and oppressed how meekly he
in patient silence stood!
Mute, as the peaceful harmless lamb,
when brought to shed its blood.
Who can his generation tell?
from prison see him led!
With impious show of law condemned,
and numbered with the dead.
’Midst sinners low in dust he lay;
the rich a grave supplied:
Unspotted was his blameless life;
unstained by sin he died.
Yet God shall raise his head on high,
though thus he brought him low;
His sacred off’ring, when complete,
shall terminate his woe.
For, saith the Lord, my pleasure then
shall prosper in his hand;
His shall a num’rous offspring be,
and still his honours stand.
His soul, rejoicing, shall behold
the purchase of his pain;
And all the guilty whom he saved
shall bless Messiah’s reign.
He with the great shall share the spoil,
and baffle all his foes;
Though ranked with sinners, here he fell,
a conqueror he rose.
He died to bear the guilt of men,
that sin might be forgiv’n:
He lives to bless them and defend,
and plead their cause in heav’n.

The Crown of Thorns
Who hath believ'd thy sacred word?
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 53 Lyrics: 1 Who hath believ'd thy sacred word?
The message of thy Son,
Reveal thine arm Almighty Lord!
And make his office known.
2 The Jews dispis'd his person here,
Esteem'd him vile and mean,
For in the form he did appear,
No comliness was seen.
3 A man, of sorrow pain and grief,
He was on earth below;
In him the Jew's had no belief,
But odious in their view.
4 They turn'd their eyes away from him,
And treated him with scorn;
He suffered pain and grief for them,
Their sorrows he hath born.
5 The Lord in justice pleas'd to bruise,
Him, though his only son;
He suffered for the stubborn Jews,
And Nations yet unknown,
6 Like wand'ring sheep we ran astray,
And left the fold of God,
Each wand'ring in the crooked way.
And in the downward road.
7 But all our sins on hin were laid,
We by his wounds are heal'd;
God's vengence on the Shepherd's head.
Is our redemption seald.
8 Ten thousand captive souls enslav'd
And doom'd to endless pain;
Are from their graves and prisons sav'd,
And brought to God again.
9 His joyful soul shall ever see!
The purchase of his blood!
Great numbers justified shall be,
And reconcil'd to God.
10 His honor's, life and ev'ry breath
For sinners then he gave
Was like the wicked in his death,
And took with them his grave.
11 But God shall raise his honor's high,
And give him great reward;
He who for sinner's once did die,
Now reigns as Sovereign Lord.

Who hath believ'd thy sacred word?
The Abasement and Exaltation of CHRIST
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 53 First Line: O who has our report believ'd? Lyrics: 1 O who has our report believ'd?
And who JEHOVAH's arm doth know?
2 For as a tender plant and root
Before Him, from dry ground He'll grow.
He has no form, nor comeliness;
And when his troubled face we see,
No beauty in Him we discern,
that by us He desir'd should be.
3 He slighted and rejected is
Ev'n of the men He came to save:
A man of constant sorrows full,
And intimate with heavy grief.
Yet we, while He was thus abus'd,
Our faces turn'd and hid from Him;
By others round He was despis'd,
Nor did we Him at all esteem.
4 Tho' sure they were our griefs He bore,
Our sinking sorrows bare did He;
Yet strook, and smote & scourg'd by GOD,
We judg'd Him righteously to be.
5 But ah! 'twas only for our sins
That He did all his wounds receive:
For our iniquities was bruis'd,
That He might us from them relieve.
Our chastisement on Him was laid,
To purchase our eternal peace:
and by his stripes it is that we
Are heal'd with wondrous pow'r and grace.
6 We all like sheep astray have gone,
Each turn'd to his own sinful way:
And yet the trespass on us all
The LORD on Him alone did lay.
7 Oppress'd, abus'd, He silent was,
As the meek lamb to slaughter bro't;
Or sheep, before her shearers dumb,
His guiltless mouth He op'ned not
8 From judgment and from pris'n [the grave]
Soon rais'd and took away was he;
And of his generation who
Shall tell the wondrous history?
For from the land of living ones
In early age was He destroy'd;
And for my people's sins the stroke
Of vi'lent death was on Him laid.
9 With criminals He dy'd; and yet
Among the rich He made his grave;
Because He did no injury,
Nor ever with his mouth deceive.
10 Yet it JEHOVAH pleas'd to bruise
And put Him to extreme distress,
When Thou shalt offer up his soul
Only for others trespasses:
When this is done, then He shall rise,
Live ever, and his offspring see;
JEHOVAH's pleasure in his hand
Shall prosper to eternity:
11 The mulitply'd and happy fruit,
Of the vast travel of his soul,
He shall survey, and with the view
He shall be pleased to the full:
By knowledge of the way of life,
My righteous servant shall appear
Vast multitudes to justify;
For He their sins will fully bear.
12 Therefore a portion with the great
To Him, as due, divide I will;
And with the mighty ones shall He
Divide and share the glorious spoil.
Because He pour'd his soul to death,
And with transgressors numbred was:
The sin of many bore; and He
For helpless sinners pleads the cause.
