Lord, we adore U the Lamb of God:
The next day John saw Jesus
coming toward him and said:
Behold the Lamb of God who
takes away the sin of the world!
This is He of whom I said: After
me comes a Man who is preferred
before me, for He was before me…
And John bore witness, saying:
I saw the Spirit descending
from heaven like a dove,
and He remained upon Him…
He who sent me to baptise with
water said: Upon whom you see
the Spirit descending & remaining
on Him, this is He who baptises
with the Holy Spirit. And I have
seen and testified that this is
the Son of God (John 1:29-34).
Father God, Your Son, no sin at all,
yet You sent Him to become the
sacrificial Lamb so that his blood
can become the substitutionary
atonement for all our sins.
Lord Jesus, we love You for being
the Lamb of God and we praise You
for all that You have accomplished:
Your sacrificial death, triumphant
resurrection; and for certain return.
Worthy is the Lamb to receive
all glory forever and ever, Amen.
Lord, I give You the glory because
You the only Begotten One, who
alone is without sin, gave Yourself
to die for me, a sinner unworthy
of such a blessing: You died the
death on the cross to free my
sinful soul from the bonds of sin.
Glory to You for Your love & mercy.
Glory to You for Your forgiveness.
Glory to You for saving our souls.
Thank You for the wonder of Your
sacrifice and praise You for the
power of the resurrection. Amen.
Lord, Your only Son, No sin to hide
But U have sent Him from Yr side
To walk upon this guilty sod
And to become the Lamb of God.
Your gift of Love, they crucified
They laughed & scorned as he died
The humble King they named fraud
And sacrificed the Lamb of God.
O Lamb of God, sweet Lamb of God
I love the Holy Lamb of God
Oh wash me in His precious Blood
My Jesus Christ the Lamb of God.
