123. Jesus, Spotless Lamb of God

7s.
by J.G. Deck
1
Jesus, spotless Lamb of God,
 
Thou hast bought us with Thy blood;
 
We are Thine, and Thine alone;
 
This we gladly, fully own.
2
Help us to confess Thy name,
 
Bear with joy Thy cross and shame;
 
Only seek to follow Thee,
 
Though reproach our portion be.
“But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.” (Galatians 6:14)
“If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.” (1 Peter 4:14)
3
When we are to glory come,
 
And have reached our heavenly home,
 
Louder then each lip shall own,
 
We are Thine, and Thine alone.
“When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.” (Colossians 3:4)
“But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.” (Hebrews 11:16)
“For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.” (Hebrews 13:14)
