Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #162 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Lamb of God, we fall before Thee,
Humbly trusting in Thy cross;
That alone be all our glory,
All things else are only dross.
Thee we own a perfect Saviour,
Only source of all that's good.
Every grace and every favor
Come to us through Jesus' blood.
2 Jesus gives us true repentance,
By His Spirit sent from heaven:
Whispers this transporting sentence,
"Son, thy sins are all forgiven.
Faith He grants us to believe it,
Grateful hearts His love to prize;
Want we wisdom? He must give it;
Hearing ears, and seeing eyes.
3 Jesus gives us pure affections,
Wills to do what He requires,
Makes us follow His directions,
And what He commands--inspires.
All our prayers, and all our praises,
Rightly offered in His name:
He that dictates them is Jesus;
He that answers is the same.
Amen. Topics: Christ Blood of; Christ Fulness of; Christ Lamb of God; Christ Praise to; Forgiveness Of Sin; Praise To Christ Languages: English Tune Title: BAVARIA
