John the Baptist was a forerunner to pave the way for the One who would take away the sins of the world.  We all need to repent our sin and allow God’s holy work to be accomplished in our life. Then, Jesus makes us an ambassador to lead the lost to the cross of Christ.

Out in the desert there was a man,
That taught the waiting world about the Lamb.
Sin was recognized and the wise repented,
This man was the one the Lamb represented.
“Behold the Lamb of God” said he.
Behold the Lamb and in Him believe.
Out in the world’s desert are many that are lost.
Many much like John will lead them to the cross.
There they will see their sin on the Lamb placed.
There they will get their first glimpse of God’s grace.
Behold the Lamb that was sacrificed;
Behold the Lamb that paid your sin’s price.
Behold the love of the Father that sent salvation to man,
Through His only Son, …through the sacrificed Lamb.
Oh how precious is the flow,
That makes you white as snow.
Come all that has deep need in your soul;
Believe in Jesus that makes you new and whole.
He who died now lives and He is the Word, that is true.
When you believe you receive as He lives His life through you.
Others out in the desert of evil will watch God’s plan unfold.
When they hear the Good News….The Lamb they too will behold

And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!
John 1:36
