The Perfect Sacrifice
THE PERFECT SACRIFICE
Our Father had so much love for man
That He sent His only Son;
And in accordance with His plan,
Christ died for everyone.
No greater love could there ever be;
This Man without sin or vice
Laid down His life for you and me:
The Perfect Sacrifice.
For all our evil thoughts and deeds,
Our Lord was crucified.
To heal our bodies, supply our needs,
Our Saviour bled and died.
Yet death and hell could not be His prison,
For after three days and nights,
The Spiritual Son of God had risen;
Ascended to God in their sights.
At the Father’s right hand now seated is He,
For us, to intercede.
So it behooves both you and me
To follow our High Priest’s lead.
