John 1:29

He was oppressed and He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth.  He was led as a Lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearer is silent, so He opened not His mouth.
Isa 53.7

Long before the day when Mary gave birth,
Before God formed man from the dust of the earth,
Before the stars into the heavens were hurled,
There was the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Before the deadly fall of the race,
God's plan of redemption was already in place.
His own Son would die on an old rugged cross,
To save His creation from eternal loss.

God foretold His coming from the opening book,
The Seed of the woman for whom we should look.
Abraham, Isaac, and the sacrificial ram,
Foretold the sacrifice of the great I AM.

The prophets proclaimed the place of His birth:
Bethlehem of Judea, where God came to earth.
His name did the prophets clearly foretell:
Mighty God, Prince of Peace, Immanuel.

In the fullness of time God's word came to pass,
The birth of the Savior to a young virgin lass.
His mission on earth was finally unfurled,
The Lamb of God, to take away the sin of the world.

The way to the Father was shown us by Christ,
He said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life."
He came to release the death grip of sin,
He went to the cross our redemption to win.

It was for our sin that He suffered and bled,
Yet triumphant, victorious, He rose from the dead.
Now seated in heaven He eternally lives,
Mercy and forgiveness freely He gives.

Salvation is promised to all who'll receive.
Trust the Lord Jesus and in Him alone believe.
Repent of your sin and for His mercy do plead,
And from sin, death, and hell you will surely be freed.

O this Christmas may your life truly start.
May the glory of God shine into your heart.
May the gift of God -- His Son Jesus Christ
Bring true peace and joy into your life.

And what can separate us from such wonderful love
So rich and so full from our great God above?
Nothing, no nothing, in all creation can part
The Lord Jesus Christ from a redeemed, trusting heart.

 Loving Jesus, gentle lamb, 
In Thy gracious hands I am. 
Make me, Savior, what Thou art: 
Live thyself within my heart. 

Lamb of God, I look to Thee: 
Thou shalt my example be. 
Thou art gentle, meek and mild; 
Thou wast once a little child.
 
Gentle Jesus, meek and mild, 
Look upon a little child. 
Pity my simplicity; 
Suffer me to come to Thee.

Lamb of God, I look to Thee: 
Thou shalt my example be. 
Thou art gentle, meek and mild; 
Thou wast once a little child. 

Let me above all fulfill 
God my heavenly Father's will: 
Never His good Spirit grieve; 
Only to His glory live. 

Lamb of God, I look to Thee: 
Thou shalt my example be. 
Thou art gentle, meek and mild; 
Thou wast once a little child. 

I shall then show forth Thy praise, 
Serve Thee all my happy days; 
That the world may always see 
Christ, the holy child, in me. 

Lamb of God, I look to Thee: 
Thou shalt my example be. 
Thou art gentle, meek and mild; 
Thou wast once a little child.


I love you . . . 
and paid the cost for you. 
Just as you are !

You were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a Lamb without blemish and without spot.
