Hymn 688 – BEHOLD all worthy in-stan-ces | C&S English Hymnary

1. BEHOLD all worthy in-stan-ces In the Bible so true To them who love to serve the Lord From birth and unto death. 2. Christ Jesus, Lord in high above The earth His glory fill He was like I am an infant Law of God keepeth He. 3. At tender age, all but at twelve Jews leadeth He aright Behold Him so gentle and meek Harkneth He to the mum. 4. E’en though despiseth of the Jews Alas! though He was mocked To Him the kids glory they give Loud hosannah they rend. 5. Like manner Samuel, Timothy All from the in-fan-cy In zeal they worshippeth the Lord Thus, I ought, God to serve. 6. Must I forsake the Lord, my God? His service to ignore? My pledge is all but God to serve In goodwill and in love AMEN
