“The Lamb was slain—His precious blood
On Calvary’s awful tree was shed;
He for the guilty sinner stood.
And bore the judgment in his stead;
He has made peace—
And now He lives, who once was dead.
Proclaimer of that peace to all,
He tells of full unmingled grace;
To high and low, who hear the call,
To old and young, of Adam’s race;
He preaches peace—
And love divine shines in His face.
Behold Him now exalted high.
Upon the throne He took His seat:
Oh, wondrous grace that we brought nigh
And in Him seated are complete;
He is our peace—
Who for the light ‘hath made us meet.’”
