Melodies of Salvation ‎#260

260. Behold the Lamb of God

1 Go, look away to Calvary,
All ye by sin oppressed,
And there the dying Saviour see,
And in his love be blest.

Chorus:
Behold, behold, behold the Lamb of God,
Which taketh away the sin of the world,
Which taketh away the sin of the word;
Behold, behold the Lamb of God,
Which taketh away the sing of the word.

2 Of broken vows and failures oft
Thy heart has weary grown;
Then lift thy longing eyes aloft
To Christ the sinless one. [Chorus]

3 Go, trusting in the Blood alone,
Bow humbly at His feet;
‘Twill for the whole wide world atone,
A sacrifice complete. [Chorus]

4 One look of penitential love,
And simple trusting faith,
With all the guilt of sin remove,
And save from endless death. [Chorus]
