This episode is a classic; one to listen to year after year. Long before the Christ child was born in Bethlehem, Isaiah writes prophetically and poetically of the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. The talented Jeff Anderson sings "Laid on Him".

Lyrics to "Laid on Him"

All we like sheep have gone astray 

Everyone has turned to his own way 

And the Lord has laid on him

All of our iniquity and all our sin

Laid on him

 

Oppressed and afflicted

No deceit in Your tongue

Castaway with the wicked

God’s only Son.

And the Lord has laid on him

All of our iniquity and all our sin

Laid on him

 

Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him;

    he has put him to grief

Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see and be satisfied;

by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant,

    make many to be accounted righteous,

when his soul makes an offering for guilt,

    he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days;

the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.

Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see and be satisfied;

by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant,

    make many to be accounted righteous, Hallelujah

 

And the Lord has laid on him

All of our iniquity and all our sin

Laid on him
