1
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.
2
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.
“But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.” (Romans 5:15)
“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” (Revelation 22:17)
“And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.” (Ephesians 2:17)
3
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,
 
For light divine He’s made us meet.
“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name.” (Philippians 2:9)
“Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.” (Hebrews 1:3)
“But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.” (Ephesians 2:13)
“And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power.” (Colossians 2:10)
“For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us.” (Ephesians 2:14)
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light.” (Colossians 1:12)
