J. Kent
’Tis the Church triumphant singing
Worthy the Lamb;
Heaven throughout with praises ringing,
Worthy the Lamb.
Thrones and powers before Him bending,
Odours 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;
Wandering 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;
