Truth ever cries: Behold the man!
Cast all your doubt away,
Accept him as the Son of God,
Complete in radiant day!
But we with blinded eyes, and ears
Made deaf by error's lie,
See not the spirit of his love
, But "Crucify him!" cry.
May we behold the glorious light,
The Christ's clear radiancy,
And know our unity with God,
With Truth, which maketh free.
Then Love alone will reign on earth,
Then strife and tumult cease,
And hearts immersed in sin and pain
Will find their sure release.
