Look who Jesus is!

[Continuing the idea of one of my old hymns on Sundays:]

Look, see the Lamb!* 
God’s sinless Son,
for all my sin
he will atone.
But who will heed?
and who will bow?
and in their need,
come to him now?

Look, see the man! ** 
now flogged and mocked –
no threat, or guilt!
Pilate was shocked –
‘Crucify, kill!’
The mob were led
to shout their will –
their Teacher dead.

Look, see your King!*** 
the Shepherd good.
God’s grace he’ll bring
by his shed blood.
They thrust aside
the witness heard;
his claims decried,
and gracious word.

Look see, with faith  
the Lord above!  **** 
he rose and lives
to hear and love:
his death procured
pardon – for all
grace is assured
to those who call.

*(John 1:29)  **(John 19:5)  ***(John19:14)  ****Acts 7:56)
