Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A 19th-century Plymouth Brethren hymn meditating on Christ as the spotless Lamb of God, tracing the Father's holiness and love through the incarnation and atoning death of Jesus. It invites worshippers to behold both the glory and the sacrifice of Christ.
Verse 1
O Spotless Lamb of God, in Thee
The Father's holiness we see;
And with delight Thy children trace,
In Thee, His wondrous love and grace.
Verse 2
For Thou didst leave Thy throne above
To teach us that our God is Love;
And now we see His glory shine
In every word and deed of Thine.
Verse 3
When we behold Thee, Lamb of God,
Beneath our sin's tremendous load,
Expiring on the accursed tree,
How great our guilt with grief we see.
Verse 4
There we with joy Thy grace behold;
Its height and depth can ne'er be told!
It bursts our chains and sets us free,
And sweetly draws our souls to Thee.
Verse 5
The cross reveals Thy love below;
But better soon our hearts shall know,
When we behold Thy face above,
The fullness of our Father's love.
