Behold the Lamb of God!

by Matthew Bridges

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 129 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

Behold the Lamb of God! O Thou for sinners slain, Let it not be in vain That Thou hast died; Thee for my Savior let me take, My only refuge let me make Thy pierced side.

Verse 2

Behold the Lamb of God! Into the sacred flood Of Thy most precious blood My soul I cast; Wash me and make me clean within, And keep me pure from every sin, Till life be past.

Verse 3

Behold the Lamb of God! All hail, incarnate Word, Thou everlasting Lord, Savior most blest; Fill us with love that never faints, Grant us with all Thy blessed saints Eternal rest.

Verse 4

Behold the Lamb of God! Worthy is He alone, To sitteth on the Throne Of God above; One with the Ancient of all days, One with the Comforter in praise, All light and Love
