Behold the Lamb (Communion Hymn)
by London Gatch

Album: Songs of Easter - Deluxe

Verse 1
Behold the Lamb
Who bears our sins away
Slain for us
And we remember
The promise made
That all who come in faith
Find forgiveness
At the cross

Chorus
So we share
In this bread of life
And we drink
Of His sacrifice
As a sign
Of our bonds of peace
Around the table of the King

Verse 2
The body of our Savior
Jesus Christ
Torn for you
Eat and remember
The wounds that heal
The death that brings us life
Paid the price to make us one

Chorus
So we share
In this bread of life
And we drink
Of His sacrifice
As a sign
Of our bonds of love
Around the table of the King

Verse 3
The blood that cleanses
Every stain of sin
Shed for you
Drink and remember
He drained death's cup
That all may enter in
To receive the life of God

Chorus
So we share
In this bread of life
And we drink
Of His sacrifice
As a sign
Of our bonds of grace
Around the table of the King

Verse 4
And so with thankfulness
And faith we rise
To respond and to remember
Our call to follow
In the steps of Christ
As His body here on earth

Chorus
As we share
In His suffering
We proclaim
Christ will come again
And we'll join
In the feast of heaven
Around the table of the King
