THE
PASSOVER LAMB
Abba went into the sheepfold to
choose a spotless lamb,
as Moses gave instructions that he
got from the I Am.
Our lamb, indeed, was spotless, so I
named him Wooly Bright;
we brought him inside to live with
us, morning, noon and night.
I ran my fingers through his coat and
fed him from my hand,
I put fresh water in his trough; he’s
the best lamb in the land!
Today he’ll be our sacrifice. Moses
said this must be done.
He must die that I may live, for I’m
a firstborn son.
We’ve been oppressed by slavery;
Pharaoh will not let us go,
but God’s mighty arm will save us.
We’ll watch His power flow.
Moses told us, take lamb’s blood, and
brush it on the lintel
then we will be protected; it almost
sounds too simple.
Tonight we will leave Egypt and
journey far from home,
but I’ll remember Wooly Bright
wherever I may roam.
Someday
the world will see in this, God’s salvation plan;
God’s
Son will be the sacrifice, the great Passover Lamb!
For
as God will use blood of lambs to set His people free,
the
precious Blood of Jesus will save sinners…you and me.
