Behold Him as the Lamb!

This was the closing prayer poem from my sermon The Jews, the Judge, and the Robber. March 19, 2023. First Chinese Baptist Church, Walnut, California.


Behold Him as the Lamb!

There are three who saw the king

On trial as a man.

Come and witness, worship, and

Behold him as the lamb!

The Jewish crowd, the leaders who

Would want to see him killed.

May I not be blinded by

My sin and by the world.

The judge, the one who held the court

And could not see the truth.

Would you help me to believe

In Christ I cannot lose.

The robber, and a murderer—

A rebel was exchanged.

Teach me now to find my rest—

I’m set free from my chains. 

There are three who saw the king

On trial as a man.

Come and witness, worship, and

Behold him as the lamb!
