For Thou hast made the blind to see,
Lord, Thou hast made the blind to see,
The pal­sied rise in free­dom strong,
Behold, the dead awake and live;
He speaks, and the cap­tive is free;
The deaf in rapture hear His voice,
The King in His beau­ty to see;

The dumb

The dead to live; and, lo, I break
The dead to live; and lo, I break
And from blind eyes, be­night­ed long,
Leap like the hart, and bless His name.
With re­joic­ing shall sing;
Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view
To ut­ter its prais­es to Thee!
