Joseph made known to his Brethren

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCCXXIV (1791) First Line: When Joseph his Brethren beheld Lyrics: 1 When Joseph his Brethren beheld, Afflicted and trembling with Fear, His Heart with Compassion was fill'd, From Weeping he could not forbear; A while his Behaviour was rough, To bring their past Sin to their Mind; But when they were humbled enough, He hasted to shew himself kind. 2 How little they thought it was he Whom they had ill-treated and sold! How great their Confusion must be, As soon as his Name he had told! "I am Joseph, your Brother (he said) "And still to my Heart you are dear; "You sold me, and thought I was dead, "But God, for your Sakes sent me here." 3 Tho' greatly distressed before, When charg'd with purloining the cup; "They now were confounded much more, Not one of them durst to look up, "Can Joseph, whom we would have slain,, "Forgive us the Evil we did? "And will he our Housholds maintain? "O this is a Brother indeed!" 4 Thus, dragg'd by my Conscience, I came, And laden with Guilt to the Lord; Surrounded with Terror and Shame, Unable to utter a Word. At first he look'd stern and severe, What Anguish then pierced my Heart! Expecting each Moment to hear The Sentence, "Thou Cursed depart!" 5 But oh! What Surprize when he spoke, While Tenderness beam'd in his Face; My Heart then to Pieces was broke, O'erwhelm'd and confounded with Grace; "Poor Sinner, I know thee full well, "By thee I was sold and was slain; "I dy'd to redeem thee from Hell, And raise thee in Glory to reign. 6 I'm Jesus whom thou hast blasphem'd, "And crucify'd often afresh; "But let me henceforth be esteem'd "Thy Brother, thy Bone, and thyFflesh; "My Pardon I freely bestow, "Thy Wants I will fully supply; "I'll guide thee and guard thee below, "And soon will remove thee on High. 7 Go publish to Sinners around, "(That they may be willing to come) "The Mercy which now you have found, "And tell them that yet there is Toom." Oh, Sinners, the Message obey! No more vain excuses pretend; But come, without further Delay, To Jesus ourBbrother and Friend. Topics: Conversion Scripture: Genesis 45:1-15 Languages: English

When Joseph His Brethren Behold

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13080 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: When Joseph his brethren beheld Lyrics: 1 When Joseph his brethren beheld, Afflicted and trembling with fear; His heart with compassion was filled, From weeping he could not forbear. Awhile his behavior was rough, To bring their past sin to their mind; But when they were humbled enough, He hasted to show himself kind. 2 How little they thought it was he, Whom they had ill treated and sold! How great their confusion must be, As soon as his name he had told! "I’m Joseph, your brother," he said, "And still to my heart you are dear; You sold me, and thought I was dead, But God, for your sakes, sent me here." 3 Though greatly distressed before, When charged with purloining the cup; They now were confounded much more, Not one of them dared to look up. "Can Joseph, whom we would have slain, Forgive us the evil we did? And will he our households maintain? O this is a brother indeed!" 4 Thus dragged by my conscience, I came, All laden with guilt, to the Lord; Surrounded with terror and shame, Unable to utter a word. At first He looked stern and severe, What anguish then pierced my heart! Expecting each moment to hear The sentence, "Thou cursed, depart!" 5 But O! what surprise when He spoke, While tenderness beamed in His face; My heart then to pieces was broke, O’erwhelmed and confounded by grace: “Poor sinner, I know thee full well, By thee I was sold and was slain; I died to redeem thee from hell, And raise thee in glory to reign. 6 "I am Jesus, whom thou hast blasphemed, And crucified often afresh; But let Me henceforth be esteemed, Thy brother, thy bone, and thy flesh: My pardon I freely bestow, Thy wants I will fully supply; I’ll guide thee and guard thee below, And soon will remove thee on high. 7 "Go, publish to sinners around, That they may be willing to come, The mercy which now you have found, And tell them that yet there is room." O, sinners, the message obey! No more vain excuses pretend; But come, without further delay, To Jesus, our brother and friend. Languages: English Tune Title: GREEN FIELDS
