Behold Among Men by Lucien Deiss, CSSp — Lyrics

BEHOLD AMONG MENREFRAIN Behold among men the dwelling place of God; they shall be his people and he shall be their Lord and God! BEHOLD AMONG MENVERSE 1 People called by God through the Word of the prophets; people brought together in the house of the Lord; people who attend to their Lord, the church of Christ the Lord! BEHOLD AMONG MENVERSE 2 Temple built by Saints, by the martyrs and apostles; Holy temple built upon Christ the Cornerstone; Holy dwelling place of our God, the church of Christ the Lord! BEHOLD AMONG MENVERSE 3 People who are born in the waters of the spirit; people who are marked by the Seal of the spirit; people in the spirit made one, the church of Christ the Lord! BEHOLD AMONG MENVERSE 4 People who are grafted on Jesus the Vine; Branches bearing fruit in the grace of the Lord; Branches rooted in his great love, the church of Christ the Lord!

About Behold Among Men

"Behold Among Men" is a profound liturgical hymn that celebrates the Church as the living dwelling place of God. Drawing its imagery from the Book of Revelation and the Letter to the Ephesians, the text reminds the congregation that they are a people called by the prophets, built upon Christ the cornerstone, and nourished by the Eucharist. In Nigerian Catholic parishes, this piece is often sung during the Entrance procession or at the dedication of a church, setting a majestic and unifying tone as the faithful gather for Mass.

Paired with it on this sheet is the classic hymn "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty." This reverent song of praise lifts the mind to the heavenly liturgy, joining the voices of the choir with the cherubim and seraphim. With its soaring melody and lyrics adoring the Blessed Trinity, it is a staple for Trinity Sunday and general worship. Together, these two hymns offer a natural progression from the earthly gathering of God's people to the eternal worship of the Triune God.
