Hymnal: Joy to the World #186 (1879) First Line: By thy birth, and by thy tears Lyrics: 1 By thy birth, and by thy tears;
By thy human griefs and fears;
By thy conflict in the hour
Of the subtle tempter's power--
Savior, look with pitying eye;
Savior, help me, or I die.
2 By thy lonely hour of prayer;
By the fearful conflict there;
By thy cross and dying cries;
By thy one great sacrifice--
Savior, look with pitying eye;
Savior, help me, or I die.
3 By thy triumph o'er the grave;
By thy power the lost to save;
By thy high majestic throne;
By the empire all thine own--
Savior, look with pitying eye;
Savior, help me, or I die. Languages: English
