Behold the Lamb,
whose precious blood
Drawn from His riven side,
Had power to make
our peace with God,
Nor lets one spot abide.
The dying thief beheld that Lamb
Expiring by his side,
And proved the value of the Name
Of Jesus crucified.
His soul, by virtue of the blood,
To paradise received,
Redemption's earliest trophy stood,
From sin and death retrieved.
We, too, the cleansing
power have known
Of Christ's atoning blood,
By grace have learnt
His name to own,
By which we're brought to God.
To Him, then,
let our songs ascend,
Who stooped in grace so low:
To Christ, the Lamb,
the sinner's Friend,
Let ceaseless praises flow.
