In His Temple Now Behold Him
Author: H. J. Pye (1851)
In His Temple now behold Him,
See the long-expected Lord;
See the long-expected Lord;
Ancient prophets had foretold Him,
God has now fulfilled His word.
God has now fulfilled His word.
Now to praise Him, His redeemed
Shall break forth with one accord.
Shall break forth with one accord.
In the arms of her who bore Him,
Virgin pure, behold Him lie
Virgin pure, behold Him lie
While His aged saints adore Him
Ere in perfect faith they die.
Ere in perfect faith they die.
Allelujah, allelujah!
Lo! the incarnate God Most high!
Lo! the incarnate God Most high!
Jesus, by Your presentation,
When they blessed You, weak and poor,
When they blessed You, weak and poor,
Make us see Your great salvation,
Seal us with Your promise sure;
Seal us with Your promise sure;
And present us in Your glory
To Your Father, cleansed and pure.
To Your Father, cleansed and pure.
