Isaiah 53 - (set to music) - Servant Song - All 12 Verses

MP3 download and sheet music with lyrics are available at www.zcpress.org/isaiah-53/
Feb 23, 2019 - Some of you have been with me along this journey of putting Isaiah 53 to music. The first draft was released on Thanksgiving Day of 2018, and consisted only of the 1st 8 verses. The basic melody has remained the same since then, but the style and presentation is quite different now after nearly 2 dozen draft versions, stretching over 3 months. There is no telling how many times I have listened to this now. It is in the hundreds, and I did not tire of it, which I consider to be a miracle of enabling grace. I'm going to trust God to give you the grace to listen to it too though it is admittedly very long. I could not find a place to break it up, as I have done with the Song of Moses, and Psalm 22. I hope this rendition will help you store this precious and costly portion of Scripture in your heart for the days and eternity to come.
Isaiah 53:1-12
1 Who… Who hath believed our report?
and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender shoot,and a root out of the dry, dry ground:He hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him,
there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3 He is despised and rejected of men;
a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief:
and we hid as it were our faces from him;he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, carried our sorrows:
yet we did esteem him, smitten of God;
stricken, afflicted, smitten of God.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions,
he was bruised for our iniquities:
the chastisement of our peace was upon him;
and with his stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned every one to his own way;and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
yet he opened not…
He opened not his mouth:
he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter,
a sheep before her shearers is dumb,
so he opened not…
He opened not his mouth.
8 He was taken from prison; taken from judgment:
and who shall declare his generation?
for he was cut off out of the land of the living:
for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9 And he made his grave with the wicked,
and with the rich… the rich in his death;
because he had done no violence,
nor was any deceit in his mouth.
10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him;
he hath put him to grief:
when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin,
He shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days,
and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11 He shall see of the travail of his soul,
and He shall be… satisfied:
by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many;
for he shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore will I divide Him a portion with the great,and He shall divide the spoil…
the spoil with the strong;
because he has poured out his soul unto death:with the transgressors was he numbered;
and He bare the sin of many,
for the transgressors He intercedes.

Isaiah 53:1-12 KJV Am Who hath Dm believed our E report? and to Am whom is the arm of the Lord E revealed? [2] For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. [3] He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. [4] Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. [5] But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. [6] All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. [7] He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. [8] He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. [9] And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. [10] Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.

[12] Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors. tbibl.es/196H

From where did you get the chords ??.. cord ify ?? I think yes.. no could not be cord ify .. I do not have this song I my "chordufy library"

[@LittleFlockDisciples]

Used to listen to Psalms 119 and deut ,28 Problem. Is you teach the same lies as the churches. No lie is of the truth

[@zcpress]

It would do you well to make your case instead of just making a blanket condemnation. Perhaps you do not feel the need for the Holy One, Israel's Messiah, to come and die for your own sins. Perhaps, like many others, you have hope that you can, if you could just muster up enough determination, keep God's perfect law. I proclaim a little bad news that you will never muster up that determination, but then there is the Good News that washes that bad news far far away. THE Law Keeper, has humbled Himself, at a great and terrible cost, to come and abide in those to whom He has given the gift of believing what He has done. If that is a lie, then I am guilty.
