Where Is the Lamb?

“Where is the lamb?” asked young Isaac that day.
He looked, but tried as he could,
He simply saw no substitute
To lay upon that wood.
“God will provide Himself, the Lamb,”
Wise Abraham answered his son.
He knew by faith his God would provide,
Though he didn’t how t’would be done.
That’s the question the world is asking.
“Where is the Lamb?” they cry.
“Who will go in my place before God
And who for my sins will die?”
God will provide the Lamb my friend.
The Lamb who will bear your sin.
He stands even now at the door of your heart
And asks you to let Him in.
Behold that Lamb for the first time.
He can be yours today.
He is waiting and wanting once and for all
To wash all your sins away.
Behold the Lamb, young Christian.
You may have erred, its true,
But He’s seated now at the right hand of God
To make intercession for you.
Behold the Lamb, troubled Christian.
God has come down from His throne
And He’s in the midst of that fire with you,
He’ll never leave you alone.
Behold the Lamb, weary parent,
Though sometimes the future looks dim,
Lay that child now on the altar of God
And just give him over to Him.
Like Isaac we ask, “Where is the Lamb
Who once and for all paid the price?”
God answers back, “Behold the Lamb,
His name is Jesus Christ.”
