The Lamb of God
Nailed to the cross
the holy lamb of God
sacrificed as a ransome
for the wrongs of the whole world;
Behold the great drops of passion
Rolling down from hiss crimson balls
and streams of sacrifice and love
flowing out of his bleeding side
Condemned to the cross:
the only son of God,
depised to pay the price
for the poor to gain the prize;
oh! hear the the great word of true salvation
out of his thirsty pot
And eternal thought of full redemption
out of his weeping heart.
burried by the cross the martyred word of God destined to be die and rise again
to save us from the cross of cruelty and pain
behold the the victorious sun of life
He is risen from the grave of shame and chains with the key of life eternal for the
sheep and rod of jugdement and hell for the son of perdition
behold the lamb of God
slain to save us forever.
