Nicky Chiswell and Rob Smith’s Behold The Lamb Of God is an old favourite.
It’s another song that I cannot believe I haven’t already posted.
So, thanks to the EMU Music YouTube page providing us with a copy to embed, here it is.
When I’m really happy I love shouting the word ‘Come!’ in the final verse, but I try not to do it every time.
It’s hard.
Here’s the lyrics from the EMU website.
1.
He walked on earth
Showing glimpses of heaven,
Demons, death, disease
Had no hand.
The wind and the waves were
Obedient before Him:
Well may they say
“Who is this man?”
Chorus
Behold the Lamb of God
Who takes away our sin,
The light of the world,
The Son of God!
Worthy is the Lamb
To receive our praise,
And glory and honour, and power.
2.
He turned not His face
From our pain and destruction,
He drank the bitter cup to the end
He who knew no sin
Took the punishment for us,
Deserted by God, man and friend.
Chorus
3.
On the third day
He was raised up with glory,
Reigning on high, the risen Son.
Now we have life,
A new hope, a new future,
Now we cry, ‘Come, Lord Jesus come!’
Chorus
