Though All The Beasts On Earth Be Slain

But in these [there is] a calling to mind of sins yearly. For blood of bulls and goats [is] incapable of taking away sins. Wherefore coming into the world he says, Sacrifice and offering thou willedst not; but thou hast prepared me a body. Thou tookest no pleasure in burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin. Hebrews 10:3-6

And every priest stands daily ministering, and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. For by one offering he has perfected in perpetuity the sanctified. Hebrews 10:11,14

  1. Hebrews 10:3-6, Hebrews 10:11Though all the beasts on earth be slain

    Hebrews 10:4, Hebrews 10:11To wash away sin's crimson stain,

    Hebrews 10:4, Hebrews 10:11Though all their blood should flow,

    Hebrews 10:4, Hebrews 10:11The sacrifice would be in vain,

    Hebrews 10:11Iniquity would still remain:

    Hebrews 10:11Sin is not cancelled so.

  2. Hebrews 10:9,10,12, Hebrews 9:23A better Sacrifice than these

    Romans 5:9, Hebrews 10:22It needs, the conscience to appease,

    Romans 3:25,26, Hebrews 10:10Or satisfy the Lord;

    Romans 3:25, 1 Peter 1:19And blood hath virture to atone

    Isaiah 53:12, 1 Peter 1:19For man's offence, but His alone

    John 1:1, 1 Peter 1:19Whose title is the Word:

  3. John 17:22, John 10:30His, who could say, Himself the Son,

    John 10:30, John 10:30That with the Father He is one,

    Hebrews 1:2, John 1:3Who made the world around:

    Zechariah 13:7His, who Jehovah's Fellow stood,

    John 5:18, John 10:30And claimed equality with God,

    Psalms 72:19, Philippians 2:9-11Who glory knows no bound.

  4. John 6:38, Colossians 2:6Jesus the Christ, on earth His Name,

    Galatians 1:3, John 6:38He came - in love to sinners came -

    John 19:30And bowed His head and died;

    Matthew 27:45,46, Hebrews 9:12A full atonement now is made,

    1 Timothy 2:5,6, Matthew 20:28The ransom by Himself is paid,

    Romans 3:26, Psalms 32:1,2And justice satisfied.

  5. Hebrews 10:22, James 4:8That sinners might draw near to Him,

    Ephesians 1:3-5, 1 John 4:14God planned this great, this gracious scheme,

    Matthew 20:28, Job 33:24And found the ransom too.

    Revelation 5:11,12, Deuteronomy 33:3Let all His saints their voices raise,

    Revelation 5:11-13, Job 19:25And sing the great Redeemer's praise

    Revelation 5:11-13, Jude 1:24While endless ages flow.
