Come, let us join our cheerful songs (14)

Come, let us join our cheerful songs,
And thus surround the throne:
Had we ten thousand thousand tongues,
Our theme of joy’s but one-

"Worthy the Lamb that’s gone on high,
To be exalted thus!"
"Worthy the Lamb that died!" we cry,
"For He was slain for us."

Jesus is worthy to receive
Honor and power divine;
Yea, blessings more than we can give
Be, Lord, forever Thine.

Soon shall Thy saints, exalted high,
A glorious anthem raise;
And all that dwell beneath the sky
Speak forth Thine endless praise.

Redeemed creation join in one,
To adore the sacred name
Of Him that sits upon the throne,
And to exalt the Lamb.
