The Cup taken to His lips

Our hands upon His head
our sins in the cup
the cup taken to His lips
God made him who had no sin
made to be sin, for the world
for us, for all mankind
the high priest, the lamb
unblemished, now blood-red
stained by our sin
by the scourge, the lash
the sweat of suffering
choosing to be made sin
to climb Calvary
to die upon the cross
to set all people free
