The Paschal Lamb which Israel slew,
Ye seed of Jacob, speaks to you—
Holds Jesus forth from blemish free,
Whose blood's a peaceful sign to thee.
If sprinkled o'er thy conscience now,
How greatly loved and blest art thou;
Thousands there are who never see
This peaceful sign made known to thee.
Made known to whom? to those approved,
God's own elect, In Christ beloved ;
They, only they, are led to see
This peaceful sign made known to thee.
Then why, my soul, shouldst thou despair,
And doubt thy Saviour's constant care?
Torn from himself thou canst not be;
His blood's a peaceful sign to thee.
And when thy God shall bid thee rise
To join the chorus of the skies,
This thy support in death shall be—
His blood's a peaceful sign to thee.
