HYMN 82.
Not all the blood of beasts
On Jewish altars slain
Could give the guilty conscience peace,
Or wash away the stain.
But Christ, the Heav'nly Lamb,
Takes all our sins away;
A sacrifice of nobler name,
And richer blood than they.
Believing, we rejoice
To see the curse removed;
We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice,
And sing His bleeding love.
To God the Father, Son,
And Spirit, glory be;
As t'was, and is, and shall be so,
To all eternity.
