Lamb of God
Behind The Song
Based on a traditional communion song/prayer, several years ago, Gary Rand set those classic words to a simple and haunting tune. It was something many folks grew to love, it became a mainstay in worship at LaSalle Street Church in Chicago and McCormick Theological Seminary. A couple years ago, though, we decided to rewrite the lyrics and tried to bring a fresh perspective on the old text. The lyrics now reflect on a God who so loves the world and every one of us: "Lamb of God. With love poured out you suffer with the world." This is a song to be sung as a prayer, as a plea, as a hope.

Lamb of God
With love poured out you suffer with the world
Have mercy, have mercy (repeat)
Lamb of God
Who suffers with the world
Grant us peace, grant us peace
Grant us peace, grant us peace
