General (Vol. 3)
Unblemished Lamb
- Unblemished lamb, who takes away our sin
Turning our jaded thoughts to pastures new;
Giving the pilgrim courage to begin
and Grace to see the arduous journey through:
We think in metaphors to make Him real
But He gave You the power to reveal. - Unblemished lamb, whose mercy is complete,
Grace our mean temples with Your sojourning;
Help us to rally when we sense defeat
And be Your worthy hosts in welcoming:
We use mean words to sense The Father's power
But You translated the oracular. - Unblemished Lamb, the source of all our peace,
Patron of concord and true brotherhood,
May our recalcitrant rebellion cease
And find forgiveness in Your cleansing blood:
What Prophets intimated You fulfilled,
By giving endless life when You were killed.
