  1. 1Behold the Lamb of God!O Thou for sinners slain,Let it not be in vainThat Thou hast died.Thee for my Savior let me take,My only refuge let me makeThy pierced side!
  2. 2Behold the Lamb of God!All hail, incarnate word!Thou everlasting Lord,Savior most blest!Fill us with love that never faints,Grant us, with all Thy blessed saints,Eternal rest.
  3. 3Behold the Lamb of God!Worthy is He aloneTo sit upon the throneOf God above,One with the ancient of all days,One with the comforter in praise,All light, all love!Amen.
