Holy Is the Lamb
Holy lamb
pride of the shepherd
oh, Lamb, you were among the first
to greet Me in the Holy manger
that first Christmas Eve
lamb so holy
your fleece was sheered
to cover Me on a snowy night
offering a warm welcome
lambs and shepherds
saw the star of Bethlehem
traversed pristine drifts
to share this holy moment
My Father sees His flock
all are lambs in his eyes
but holiest are those
who choose to follow His path
holy is the lamb
though many are called
only truly holy lambs choose
to dwell in My Father’s kingdom
the choice is yours
holiest of lambs
make each moment
an act worthy of My Father’s grace
behind the shepherd
holy is the lamb
who follows
through the gates of eternal life
