Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #252 (1888) First Line: Not all the blood of beasts Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts
On Jewish altars slain,
Could give the guilty conscience peace,
Or wash away the 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 dear head of thine,
While like a penitent I stand,
And there confess my sin.
4 My soul looks back to see
The burdens thou didst bear,
When hanging on the cursed tree,
And hopes her guilt was there.
5 Believing, we rejoice
To see the curse remove;
We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice,
And sing his dying love. Topics: Atonement Necessary; Christ Blood of; Christ Lamb; Christ Substitute; Conscience; Dependence On Grace Scripture: Leviticus 16:21 Languages: English Tune Title: GORTON
