Behold the Lamb
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

BEHOLD THE LAMB

Lord thank You for the Passover Lamb
Whose blood was shed for me
Full remission of my sins
Because of Calvary

To become reconciled to You
A human sacrifice was prepared
The Lamb without one spot or blemish
To make us heirs was required

Not merely man in human flesh
To obtain our liberty
But God Himself and nothing less
Our Deliverer, Deity!

In full belief and trusting You
I rest in saving faith
And meditate upon the thought
Salvation is by grace

Now sings my soul with joy and gladness
Jesus ransomed me
In the presence of both saints and sinners
I'll tell of His love for thee

Love that left His throne in glory
Humbled Himself and became a man
Look ye saints, His sight is glorious
Behold the Lamb! Behold the Lamb!

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
