Lyics

NOT all the blood of beasts,

On Jewish altars slain,

Could give the guilty conscience peace,

Or wash away the stain.



But Christ, the Heavenly Lamb,

Bears all our sins away;

A sacrifice of nobler name;

And richer blood than they.



Believing, we rejoice

To see the curse remove;

We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice,

And sing his dying love.
