The Lamb of God

They say Mary had a little lamb
They may have stumbled upon the Truth

But hey! Hear John who had no cam;
He made hay while the sun shone forth

Screaming, "Behold, the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world!"

At that sin washing bay, the Son showed up

They say the lion king is majestic

But hey! This King held no walking stick!

He went about doing good and healing the sick!

You may not know His power to rule

But hey! That's just because He came as a lamb!

O! The Lamb of God! That perfect sacrifice!

Who bled and died for the remission of sins!

"He was made to be sin for us, Who knew no sin that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him"

His jaws and ribs out of joint
His throat parched and lungs ruptured
As though he caught COVID
But hey! It was not '19- He split time into B.C. and A.D.

Face to face with His fiercest enemy,
He paced the length and breadth of Hell,
Mauling darkness limb by limb, for He was no mere lamb at all!

A fierce Lion had emerged, Whose roar blasted the blackness of darkness, sending saints out of captivity

After three days of seeming defeat, He had seized the keys of Death

A new breed sprang forth

With a divine mandate to show forth

The virtues and excellencies of Him who called us out of darkness into His marvellous light!

O! What a Commission!

Hey! Can you hear Him announce, 
"GO YE therefore and make disciples of all nations..."?

Will you tell this Good News?

Will give yourself for the Master's Use?

They say you only live once
But hey! This is your best chance at making Heaven dance!
