Behold the Lamb of God,
Who takes away our sin;
Our crucified and risen Lord,
His blood unlocks God’s heaven.

Behold the Lamb of God,
Who washes white our robes;
Seated above, in heaven enthroned,
We give Him endless praise.

Behold the Lamb of God,
Our souls He shields and feeds;
Amongst His folk, His choice abode,
Provides our every need.

Behold the Lamb of God,
Our Shepherd, King of love;
To Living water He’ll us lead,
And every tear remove.

Behold the Lamb of God,
Heaven’s worthy Prince and Son;
King of all kings and sovereign Lord,
Crown Him with every crown.

(Tune: Dennis; Trentham; SM)
