Not all the blood of beasts

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 604 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts On Jewish altars slain, Could give the guilty conscience peace, Or wash away the stain. 2 But Christ, the heavenly Lamb, Takes all our sins away, A sacrifice of nobler name And richer blood, than they. 3 My faith would lay her hand On that dear head of Thine, While as a penitent I stand, And there confess my sin. 4 My soul looks back to see The burden Thou didst bear, When hanging on the cursèd tree, I know her guilt was there. 5 Believing, we rejoice To see the curse remove; We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice, And sing His bleeding love. Amen.
