Appointed to replace the unleavened, within the basin
Reconstitute, the blood's drip above the door
Bunches of Hyssop dipped, will deliver judgment
Captives are saved when at dawn, they kiss their first born
Gone are the times of rams in the bush, priest heed not your sacrifice
His Infinite wishes to cleanse his image, those to which he gave his blessing
Within this earthly realm resides his breath of life, his creation
This Lamb, this true lamb, awaited the moment of our atonement
This vastness of love, their love for mankind, no heft in measurement
To the table the son invites, partook in bread and wine at his Supper
Flesh they eat and blood they drink, this lamb offered up as the last sacrifice
To purify those with sin who puff up, to take away their malicious hearts
And shine them like gold, redeem those who craft the devil's work
Usher them into the New Covenant, fare paid when his blood spilled
They slit his flesh under hammered nails, with sword letting, it sprayed upon the solider
Sacrificial ceremony was deemed to set all free, bring them into the flock
This lamb is now our Savior, gave us biblical visuals on the way we should go
This lamb is now our Shepherd, but some of us just call him, The Door
The True Lamb or The one who brought us the Passover
