Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #87 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts
On Jewish altars slain,
Could give the guilty conscience peace,
Or wash away our stain.
2 But Christ, the heavenly Lamb,
Takes all our sins away;
A sacrifice of nobler name,
And richer blood, than they,
3 My faith would lay her hand
On that meek head of Thine,
While as a penitent I stand,
And here confess my sin.
4 My soul looks back to see
The burden Thou didst bear
When hanging on the accursed tree,
And knows her guilt was there.
5 Believing, we rejoice
To feel the curse remove;
We bless the Lamb, with cheerful voice,
And trust His bleeding love. Topics: Christ Coming again; Christ Heavenly Lamb; Christ Immanuel; Christ Lamb of God; The Godhead The Son; Sacrifice For sin; Sacrifice Of Christ; Lamb Christ, the Heavenly ; Sin Sacrifice for Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BRIDE
