VERSE 1
JOHN THE BAPTIZER AT THE JORDAN SAW CHRIST JESUS COMING HIS WAY,
AND HE CRIED OUT, "BEHOLD THE LAMB OF THE LIVING GOD",
THAT TAKETH AWAY THE SINS OF THE WORLD UPON HIMSELF TO BEAR ALONE,
I WANT TO BEHOLD THE LAMB 'CAUSE I'M ONE OF HIS OWN.

CHORUS
I WANT TO BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD,
I WANT TO BEHOLD THE SON OF GOD ON HIS HEAVENLY THRONE.
I SEE THAT GOD HIMSELF PROVIDED A LAMB,
AND I KNOW JESUS IS THE GREAT I AM,
I WANT TO BEHOLD THE LAMB 'CAUSE I'M ONE OF HIS OWN.

VERSE 2
ON THE TRANSFIGURATION MOUNTAIN, GOD SAID, "THIS IS MY BELOVED SON;
AND YOU MUST HEAR HIM, LISTEN, HEED WHAT HE HAS TO SAY".
THIS WAS ALL WITNESSED ON THE MOUNTAIN TOP BY PETER, JAMES, AND JOHN.
I WANT TO BEHOLD THE LAMB 'CAUSE I'M ONE OF HIS OWN.

VERSE 3
JESUS TOLD ALL OF HIS DISCIPLES HE'S THE SHEPHERD; WE ARE HIS SHEEP.
AND WE WILL LISTEN WHEN HE CALLS FOR WE KNOWETH HIS VOICE.
BUT WE WON'T FOLLOW ANY OTHER; WE ARE HIS SHEEP AND HIS ALONE.
I WANT TO BEHOLD THE LAMB 'CAUSE I'M ONE OF HIS OWN.

VERSE 4
MOSES RAISED UP THE FIERY SERPENT AS JEHOVAH TOLD HIM TO DO.
THOSE THAT ARE BITTEN LOOK UPON IT SO THEY WON'T DIE.
AND JESUS WAS LIFTED UP AT CALV'RY DRAWING US TO HIM, GIVING US LIFE.
I WANT TO BEHOLD THE LAMB 'CAUSE I'M ONE OF HIS OWN.
