252 - Come, Let us Sing

Come, let us sing the song of songs–
The angels first began the strain–
The homage which to Christ belongs:
“Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!"
2
Slain to redeem us by His blood,
To cleanse from every sinful stain,
And make us kings and priest to God:
“Worthy the Lamb, for he was slain!"
3
To Him who suffered on the tree,
Our souls, at His soul’s price, to gain,
Blessing and praise, and glory be:
“Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!"
4
To Him, enthroned by filial right
All power in heaven and earth proclaim,
Honor and majesty, and might:
“Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!"
5
Long as we live, and when we die,
And while in heaven with Him we reign,
This song our song of songs shall be:
“Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!"
