(Rev. 5:9.)

"Thou art worthy," blessed Saviour,
Sinless bearer of our sin!
In behalf of all Thy people
Thou the victory didst win.
Thou art worthy that all glorious
Thou shouldst over all things reign;
Thou hast made Thy hosts victorious-

Thou wast tor Thy people slain.
Thou art worthy of all blessing,
Power, and majesty, and fame:
All mankind Thy worth confessing
Shall adore Thy wondrous name.
Nothing from Thy love shall sever
Those whom Thou hast made Thine own :
They shall reign with Thee forever;
They shall stand before Thy throne.

Thou art worthy, for creation
Waits in pain Thy face to see:
Thou art worthy, for salvation
Has its source alone in Thee.
Thou art worthy that in heaven
Homage should to Thee be paid:
By Thy life so freely given,
Kings and priests Thy saints are made.

Thou art worthy that unceasing
Praises should to Thee be sung
By that host each day increasing
Out of every tribe and tongue.
Thou art worthy of the station
Highest in the realms above,
And of deepest adoration,
Glory, honor, praise, and love!
