My Jesus, The Lamb of God

 Here’s a sacred poem proclaiming Jesus as the Lamb of God, saturated with Scripture:  

---

### **"Behold the Lamb"**  

*"The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said,  

'Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!'"*  

—John 1:29  

**Verse 1:**  

*Not spotless rams on altars slain (Lev. 16:15),*  

*But You—the final Sacrifice.*  

*No blood of bulls could wash our stain,*  

*Yet Yours pours mercy like the tides (Heb. 9:12-14).*  

**Verse 2:**  

*Silent before the shearers’ blade (Isa. 53:7),*  

*You bore the thorns we ought to wear.*  

*The knife of justice, undelayed—*  

*Yet Love cried, "Father, forgive them there" (Luke 23:34).*  

**Verse 3:**  

*Now death’s dark door stands open wide,*  

*The slaughtered Lamb is glorified (Rev. 5:6,12)!*  

*Your scars still plead with crimson grace—*  

*Our Passover, our Hiding Place (1 Cor. 5:7; Ex. 12:13).*  

**Doxology:**  

*"Worthy the Lamb upon the throne (Rev. 5:12-13),*  

*Who traded heaven for our shame.*  

*The Shepherd died to claim His own—*  

*Oh, sing His everlasting Name!"*

This poem moves from Old Testament shadows to New Testament fulfillment, celebrating Christ’s atoning work. May it deepen your awe for the One who was "led like a lamb to the slaughter" (Isaiah 53:7) yet reigns as the Lion of Judah (Rev. 5:5-6). 🕊️✝️  

*(Key Scriptures: Passover imagery (Exodus 12), Suffering Servant (Isaiah 53), and Revelation’s victorious Lamb.)*
