Verse 1

Oh the perfect Son of God
In all His innocence
Here walking in the dirt
with You and me
He knows what living is
He's acquainted with our grief
A Man of sorrows Son of suffering

Oh blood and tears
How can it be
That there's a God who weeps
There's a God who bleeds
Oh praise the One
Who would reach for me
Hallelujah to the Son of suffering

Verse 2

Some imagine You
Are distant and removed
But You chased us down
in merciful pursuit
To the sinner You were grace
And the broken You еmbraced
And in the end thе proof is
in Your wounds
Yes in the end the proof is
in Your wounds

Chorus 1

Oh blood and tears
How can it be
That there's a God who weeps
There's a God who bleeds
Oh praise the One
Who would reach for me
Hallelujah to the Son of suffering

Son of Suffering - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

The song “Son of Suffering” by Bethel Music is a powerful reminder of the sacrifice Jesus made for us. The lyrics remind us that Jesus was perfect and innocent, yet He chose to walk in the dirt with us and experience our grief. He was a Man of sorrows and a Son of suffering. 

The Bible tells us that Jesus was willing to suffer for us. In Isaiah 53:3-5, it says, “He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” 

The lyrics of the song remind us that Jesus’s sacrifice was for our freedom and healing. His blood still speaks and His love still reaches us. We can praise Him for His mercy and grace. We can give glory to God forever for His Son of suffering. 

Let us remember the sacrifice Jesus made for us and give Him all the glory and praise. Let us thank Him for His mercy and grace and for His love that still reaches us. Let us give Him all the glory and praise forever.
