The Lamb Slain and Victorious



We’re walking now that path from Calvary,
following with hearts and eyes cast down.
We see the body of our Savior.
We see them lay Him in the ground.

But

in this picture of the Lamb slain
amidst the holy bloodstain,
and God-forsaken breaking-heart pain,
we still believe 
He’ll live forever, victorious
over evil, sin and Satan’s reign.

---

We’re waiting now to hear the story,
We watch and mourn the spotless Lamb slain.
There's no body resting in the chamber.
Is it true that Jesus is alive again?

Because

in the picture of the Lamb slain
amidst the purest bloodstain,
God-forsaken breaking-heart pain,
we still believe
He’ll live forever, victorious,
defeating evil, sin and Satan’s reign.

---

We're walking now that path from Calvary
following the pure white Lamb.
In hindsight, we now know the story –
the conquest by the great I AM.

But we can’t forget

the picture of the Lamb slain
amidst the purest holy bloodstain,
the God-forsaken breaking-heart pain,
although we know He’ll live forever,
victorious over evil, sin and Satan’s reign

Love to hear from you -

Psalm 104

 Is winter a place - a dull, dim, cold place?  Can I open a door and walk into winter, or better yet, walk out of it?   How did this happen?...
