Not all the blood of beasts
On Jewish altars slain
Could give the guilty conscience peace,
Or wash away the stain.
But Christ, the heav'nly Lamb,
Takes all our sins away—
A sacrifice of nobler name
And richer blood than they.
My soul looks back to see
The burden he did bear,
While pouring out his life for me;
And sees her ransom there.
