Tune 2: #1096, #1277

 

 1 

'Tis the Church triumphant singing,

      Worthy the Lamb;

Heav'n throughout with praises ringing,

      Worthy the Lamb.

Thrones and pow'rs before Him bending,

Odors sweet with voice ascending

Swell the chorus never ending,

      Worthy the Lamb.

 

 2 

Every kindred, tongue and nation,

      Worthy the Lamb;

Join to sing the great salvation,

      Worthy the Lamb.

Loud as mighty thunders roaring,

Floods of mighty waters pouring,

Prostrate at His feet adoring,

      Worthy the Lamb.

 

 3 

Harps and songs forever sounding,

      Worthy the Lamb;

Mighty grace o'er sin abounding,

      Worthy the Lamb.

By His blood He dearly bought us;

Wand'ring from the fold He sought us,

And to glory safely brought us;

      Worthy the Lamb.

 

 4 

Sing with blest anticipation

      Worthy the Lamb;

Through the vale of tribulation,

      Worthy the Lamb.

Sweetest notes, all notes excelling,

On the theme forever dwelling,

Still untold, though ever telling,

      Worthy the Lamb.
