265 Behold the Lamb of God!

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. 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. 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. 4 Behold the Lamb of God! Worthy is He alone That sitteth on the throne Of God above; One with the Ancient of all days, One with the Comforter in praise, All light and love.
