Does ANYONE know who originally sung the song

Behold the Lamb of God sent from Heaven
To take the sins of this old world all away
Behold the Lamb of God freely given
They're crucifying my SAvior today.


And they are nailing....
His precious body to the cross now...
Is that a soldier I see piercing his side...

etc. If you need more let me know.

Thanks!!!

I can't find this info ANYWHERE!!!

The Happy Travelers Quartet use to sing this. My mom use to have an old record of them but I'm not sure what happened to it. I've tried to find it online but have had no luck. Hope this helps you.

1) Who's that man with the cross on his shoulders. Bowing down beneath his heavy load. Is there noone to relive him of his burden. To help him walk that long lonely road.
2) Is he tired, is he bleeding, is he crying. Struggling now to climb Calvary's hill. They are mocking his name and casting lots now. The earth has darkened the leaves now stand still.
3) They are nailing his precious body to the cross now. Is that a soldier I see piercing his side. I hear him asking father please oh please forgive them. This is Gods' son (or your son) whom the world crucified.

cho) Behold the lamb of God freely given, to take the sins of this old world all away. Behold the lamb of God sent from heaven. They're crucifying our Savior today.

I believe this to be right as we sung it and compared to other posts.

Dianne Wilkinson wrote this. You will remember her from big tunes such as "Boundless Love" and "We Shall See Jesus."

Behold the Lamb was also sung by a group called The Song Masters, back in the 70s. My family group sang alongside of them at the southern gospel convention in Arizona around 76 or 77. Love that song, have been listening to it since my parents bought their record back then. I have also sung it at church with the praise team while our pianist played it on the piano.

In case you dont follow Gospel music and the writers, Dianne Wilkinson went home to be with the Lord in 2021.
