WHAT'S
THIS I SEE?
What's this I
see in a feeding trough?
A lamb asleep
in a bed of straw
without any
blemish to behold…
the Lamb
deserves a crown of gold
What's this
upon crossbeams, I see?
A lamb
impaled…sacrificially!
I fall to my
knees before His Grace—
the Lamb
looks down. I see God's face
From lintels
stained with blood of lambs
to the Cross
that saves from being damned—
the whole
Word holds a mystery…deep!
Blood of the
Lamb has saved His sheep
All glory to
our Paschal Lamb
Messiah, Son
of the great I AM
Who from that
humble bed of straw
became our
Savior…We bow in awe!
