[See and believe! it cannot be]
That we may see and believe.
—xv. 32.
See and believe! it cannot be:
We first believe, and then we see,
While Israel's King His power exerts,
And comes from heaven into our hearts.
We first believe, and then we see,
89
And comes from heaven into our hearts.
Had Christ descended from the cross
His life had been His creatures' loss,
Nor could we on that scale ascend
To live in joys that never end.
His life had been His creatures' loss,
Nor could we on that scale ascend
To live in joys that never end.
Did they not see to life restored
The man belovèd of his Lord,
Yet went with harden'd hearts away
And sought even Lazarus to slay?
The man belovèd of his Lord,
Yet went with harden'd hearts away
And sought even Lazarus to slay?
Who miracles demand in vain
Would stubborn infidels remain,
By countless wonders unsubdued;
For faith is still the gift of God.
Would stubborn infidels remain,
By countless wonders unsubdued;
For faith is still the gift of God.
