Though numbered with the sin-defiled,
I am my Father's long-sought child;
And now my soul is reconciled,
O Lamb of God, through thee!
The Lamb of God who for me died,
And on the cross was crucified.
In my behalf points to his side,
My only Intercessor.
In naught but filthy rags I come,
Yet, weary of these paths I roam,
I seek at last my Father's home,
O Lamb of God. through thee!
The Lamb of God who for me died,
And on the cross was crucified.
In my behalf points to his side,
My only Intercessor.
No more, among the husks and swine,
With want and hunger I repine;
The ring, the robe, the kiss are mine,
O Lamb of God, through thee.
The Lamb of God who for me died,
And on the cross was crucified.
In my behalf points to his side,
My only Intercessor.
Though coming empty to thy feet,
My soul with joy is made replete;
Mine is the Father's pardon sweet,
O Lamb of God, through thee.
The Lamb of God who for me died,
And on the cross was crucified.
In my behalf points to his side,
My only Intercessor.
