1. Behold the Lamb of God, who bore
Thy burdens on the tree;
And paid in blood the dreadful score,
The ransom due for thee.


2. Look to him, till the sight endears.
The Savior to thy heart
His pierced feet bedew with tears,
Nor from his cross depart.}}

3. Look to him till his dying love
Thy every thought control;
Its vast constraining influence prove
O'er body, spirit, soul.
4. Look to him as the race you run
Your never failing friend
Finish he will the work begun
And grace in glory end.}}

And paid in blood the dreadful score,
The ransom due for thee.

The Savior to thy heart
His pierced feet bedew with tears,
Nor from his cross depart.

O'er body, spirit, soul.

4. Look to him as the race you run
Your never failing friend
Finish he will the work begun
And grace in glory end.
