Appears in 602 hymnals 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 like a penitent, I stand, And there confess my sin. 4 My soul looks back to see The burdens thou didst bear, When hanging on the accursed tree, And hopes 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.

A weary flock are we; And snares and foes are nigh; but keep The lambs who look to Thee. 5 And if through death’s dark vale Our feet should early tread, Oh, may we reach Thy fold, and hail The love which us hath led!
