The Ceremonial Law points to Christ

Author: Cowper Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #X (1792) Meter: Irregular First Line: Israel in ancient days Lyrics: 1 Israel in ancient days, Not only had a view Of Sinai in a blaze, But learn'd the gospel too: The types and figures were a glass, In which they saw the Saviour's face. 2 The Paschal sacrifice And blood-besprinkled door, Seen with enlighten'd eyes, And once apply'd with pow'r, Would teach the need of other blood, To reconcile an angry God. 3 The lamb, the dove, set forth His perfect innocence, Whose blood of matchless worth, Should be the soul's defence; For he who can for sin atone, Must have no failings of his own. 4 The scape-goat on his head The people's trespass bore, And to the desert led, Was to be seen no more: In him our surety seem'd to say, "Behold I bear your sins away." 5 Dipt in his fellow's blood, The living bird went free; The type well understood, Express'd the sinners plea; Describ'd a guilty soul enlarg'd, And by a Saviour's death discharg'd. 6 Jesus, I love to trace Throughout the sacred page; The footsteps of thy grace, The same in ev'ry age! O grant that I may faithful be To clearer light, vouchsaf'd to me.
