[Instrumental] [Verse 1] 2b. He had no stately form or majesty That we should look upon him, Nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. [Chorus] 3. He was despised and rejected by men, A man of sorrows, acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their face, He was despised, and we considered Him not. [Verse 2] 4. Surely our grief he himself bore And our sorrows he carried, Yet we considered him punished by God, Stricken by Him, and afflicted. [Pre-Chorus] 5. But he was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our sins; The punishment that brought us peace was on him and by his wounds we are healed. [Chorus] 3. He was despised and rejected by men, A man of sorrows, acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their face, He was despised, and we considered Him not. [Bridge 1] 6. Like sheep we have all gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of all. [Verse 3] 7. He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; Like a lamb that is led to slaughter, And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers… He did not open His mouth. [Chorus] 3. He was despised and rejected by men, A man of sorrows, acquainted with grief; And like one from whom men hide their face, He was despised, and we esteemed Him not. [Instrumental]
