1 Behold the Lamb of God! O Thou for sinners slain, Let it not be in vain That Thou hast died: Thee for my Saviour let me take, My only refuge let me make Thy pierc'd 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, Saviour most blest; Fill us with love that never faints, Grant us with all Thy bless'd 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.
