Mark 15:6: This figurative custom

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)

Religion

This figurative custom
Doth to our faith discover.
A world released
At that great feast
"When justice pass'd us over;
When Jesus to His Father
Became a pure Oblation,
That Lamb of God
Whose sprinkled blood
Ascertains our salvation.
