Behold the holy Lamb of God

Author: Charles Chinula, 1885-1970; Helen Taylor; Tom Colvin Hymnal: Come, Let Us Walk This Road Together #18 (1997) Topics: Solidarity in Suffering Lyrics: 1 Behold the holy Lamb of God. Yesu, the one who lifts for us a heavy load. Holy, Lamb of God, raised high on the cross to bear for us the pain and loss. 2 In silent grief and dignity he takes the cross and walks that road to set us free. Holy, Lamb of God, raised high on the cross to bear for us the pain and loss. 3 And there outside the city wall, high on the cross, they nail the one who saves us all. Holy, Lamb of God, raised high on the cross to bear for us the pain and loss. 4 But listen to his heartfelt cry, "My God, my God, now will you leave me here to die?" Holy, Lamb of God, raised high on the cross to bear for us the pain and loss. 5 Yesu while dying on that tree, forgives our folly and our sins and sets us free. Holy, Lamb of God, raised high on the cross to bear for us the pain and loss. Languages: English Tune Title: MWANA MWERERE

Nothing we've tried has brought her healing." So said Yairu to the Healer, prostrate pleading for their daughter. "Heal our child, Yesu, come with me, Yesu to our home. Save her now, Yesu, heal our child, Yesu, hear our prayer." 2 While on the way they heard a wailing, neighbors had gathered round in mourning. "Stop this weeping, she's just sleeping, I shall hear her," promised Yesu. "You cannot," they said, "she is dead," they said, "Do not mock." "Go outside," he cried, "Little girl, arise, take my hand." 3 Then hand in hand with Yesu walking, her life renewed, she started eating. He had healed her, Yesu saved her and restores her to her mother. "We have faith, Yesu, not enough, Yesu, give us more. We believe in you, we need healing too, hear our prayer." 4 "God, we have friends in search of healing, whom now we name before you kneeling. Healer Yesu, we beseech you and entreat you peace to give them. Heal their bodies now, heal their spirits now, and their minds. Let them be restored, make them whole, Yesu, hear our prayer." 5 "Peace, health and wholeness will be ours, God, when it is your will that is done, God. Keep us faithful, ever hopeful, always joyful, for we're with you. May our love, Yesu, be your love, Yesu, reaching out. Take us by the hand, then we'll always stand at your side."
