Thoroughly Thankful

"Make a joyful noise unto the Lord.... Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise: be thankful unto Him, and bless His name" (Psalm 100:1,4,5).

As we enter now into His gates,
What is it here that meets the eye?
Behold! The brazen altar waits,
And there a sacrifice must die.

These are shadows of the Christ,
The Lamb for sinners slain.
Be thankful He was sacrificed,
And that He rose again!
