Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #232 (1899) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Faith Justification by 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 as a penitent I stand,
And there confess my sin.
4 My soul looks back to see
The burden Thou didst bear,
When hanging on the cursèd tree,
I know her guilt was there.
5 Believing, we rejoice
To see the curse remove;
We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice,
And sing His bleeding love.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CLYMER
