[Short soft, gentle Instrumental Intro]
[VERSE 1][Male Solo, Minor Key]
Surely You have borne our griefs
And carried our sorrows away.
Yet we esteemed You stricken,
Smitten by God, and afflicted.
You were wounded for our transgressions,
You were bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon You,
And by Your stripes we are healed.
By your stripes we have been healed.
[CHORUS]
[Male Trio, Major Key]
You sent Your word, and we are healed,
Your mercy flows, Your love revealed.
You bore our pain, our grief, our shame,
By Your stripes, we're healed — in Jesus’ name.
[VERSE 2][Male Solo, Minor Key]
All we like sheep have gone astray;
We've turned, every one, to his own way;
But The Lord laid upon You
The iniquity of us all.
As a lamb that's led to the slaughter,
As a sheep before its shearers is dumb,
So You opened not Your mouth.
You opened not your mouth.
[Short Instrumental][Modulate and build]
[CHORUS]
[Male Trio, Major Key]
You sent Your word, and we are healed,
Your mercy flows, Your love revealed.
You bore our pain, our grief, our shame,
By Your stripes, we're healed — in Jesus’ name.
[BRIDGE][Softer with different melody]
[Male Solo]
Bless the Lord, O my soul;
And all that is within me,
Bless His holy name!
Bless the Lord, O my soul,
Forget not all His benefits:
Who forgives all my sins,
Who heals all my disease!
[Vamp/Outro]
“Son of David, have mercy on us!”
We cry out to the Name of Jesus.
Son of David, have mercy on us!”
We cry out to the Name... of Jesus!
By your stripes we have been healed.
