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!"
