Sometimes we describe songs like these as being
"beautiful." And well, it is, isn't it? What we need to remember is that
the beauty is not in the song itself, but rather, in the message the
song is communicating. "Guilty, vile, and helpless we, spotless Lamb of
God was He, Full atonement, can it be? Hallelujah! What a savior!" This
is the Gospel.
That's where the beauty lies.
This is a way favorite hymn! I just love it.
