Hymn of the Week:
Lutheran Service Book 438 A Lamb Goes Uncomplaining Forth
The Lamb is Christ, the soul’s great friend,
The Lamb of God, our Savior,
Whom God the Father chose to send
To gain for us His favor.
“Go forth, My Son,” the Father said,
And free My children from their dread
Of guilt and condemnation.
The wrath and stripes are hard to bear,
But by Your passion they will share
The fruit of Your salvation.”
A Lamb Goes Uncomplaining Forth, v. 2
