The Work of Moses and the Lamb

Verse 1

How strong thine arm is, mighty God! Who would not fear thy name? Jesus, how sweet thy graces are! Who would not love the Lamb?

Verse 2

He has done more than Moses did, Our Prophet and our King; From bonds of hell he freed our souls, And taught our lips to sing.

Verse 3

In the Red Sea, by Moses' hand, Th' Egyptian host was drowned; But his own blood hides all our sins, And guilt no more is found.

Verse 4

When through the desert Isr'el went, With manna they were fed: Our Lord invites us to his flesh, And calls it living bread.

Verse 5

Moses beheld the promised land, Yet never reached the place; But Christ shall bring his followers home, To see his Father's face.

Verse 6

Then shall our love and joy be full, And feel a warmer flame; And sweeter voices tune the song Of Moses and the Lamb.
