Gospel Song – Now Behold the Lamb.

Kirk Franklin (born 1970), “the reigning king of urban gospel,” composed and released this song in 1995. He is a prolific songwriter and arranger, an accomplished pianist, and a celebrated choir director. Franklin has won an astonishing 16 Grammy awards, and he is still going strong. His R & B style of gospel has been called soul gospel, urban gospel, and Christian hip hop. After being abandoned at birth by his mother and father, Kirk was raised in desperate conditions by his faithful Aunt in Ft. Worth/Dallas. After a monumental teenage rebellion, Kirk returned to his Baptist Church in Dallas, and devoted his life to following Jesus and pursuing his musical career. He continues to produce highly acclaimed albums and spread the Faith through his unique gospel sound.

LYRICS – Now Behold the Lamb

Now behold the Lamb, the precious Lamb of God,

Born into sin that I may live again, the precious Lamb of God.

 

Holy is the Lamb, the precious Lamb of God,

Why you love me so, Lord I shall never know, the precious Lamb of God.

 

When I always didn’t do right, I went left, He told me to go right,

But I’m standing here in the midst of my tears, Lord I claim you to be the Lamb of God.

 

Thank you for the Lamb, the precious Lamb of God.

Because of your grace, I can finish this race, the precious Lamb of God.

 

Even when I broke your heart, my sins tore us apart,

But I’m standing right here in the midst of my tears, I claim you to be the Lamb of God.

 

New life can begin, for you washed away every one of my sins,

Whom the Son sets free is truly free indeed, the precious Lamb of God.
