O Lamb, once slain! now risen,
And on Thy Father’s throne,
Cherubs and seraphs round Thee cry,
"Worthy the Lamb alone!"
Lord Jesus, Prince and Saviour,
Eternal God the Son,
To Thee they raise that shout of praise,
"Worthy the Lamb alone!"

Yet, Lord, from us ascendeth-
To seraph-tongue unknown-
Deeper and sweeter notes of joy,
"Worthy the Lamb alone,
Who loved us, Who hath washed us
From sins in blood His own!
To Him be power for evermore!
Worthy the Lamb alone!"

When with Thee, throned in glory,
With golden harp and crown,
Grandly, O Lord, shall burst the chord,
"Worthy the Lamb alone,
Who gave Himself to save us-
His life-blood to atone!
Love, praise and song to Him belong!
Worthy the Lamb alone!"

Come, Lord! that, bowed before Thee,
We may our crowns cast down,
Singing as never angel sang,
"Worthy, Thou Lamb, alone!
All blessing, honor, glory,
Be Thine, on heaven’s throne!
Take power and reign,
Thou Lamb once slain!
Worthy the Lamb alone!"
