And My name for ever known ‘Ropheca’,
Hear ye nations, I am your Messiah,
And from Heaven I came down.
CHORUS
When thou callest on Myname I’ll hear thee,
From thy sickness and thy sin I’ll free thee,
And a Kingdom in My heaven I’ll give thee ;
For all nations I came down.
2 I have seen thy suff’ring and thy groaning,
And for thee My heart is ever yearning,
Cease from striving, come to Me believing,
For from Heaven I came down.
3 I have heard thy pleadings from thy cloister,
I will lead and show the way, thy Master,
Come, ye fearful, I alone can nurture,
It’s from Heaven I came down.
4 Surely I have borne their pains and sickness,
They like sheep have gone astray thro’ weakness,
But in Me they find their health with meekness,
For their healing I came down.
5 I have formed a people for My glory,
They be firstfruits of redeemed, thro’ Calv’ry :
Over all My works they reign, their vict’ry,
For their Heaven I came down.
6 To the ends of earth proclaim His servants,
This before the Lord returns — His advent,
He is God, and none but He is potent,
And from Heaven He came down.
