Worthy, wor­thy is the Lamb!
Worthy, wor­thy is the Lamb!
Worthy, wor­thy is the Lamb
That was slain!

Praise Him, hal­le­lu­jah!
Praise Him, hal­le­lu­jah!
Praise Him, hal­le­lu­jah!
Praise the Lamb!

We the crown of life shall wear,
We the palm of vic­to­ry bear,
All our Fa­ther’s bless­ings share
In the Lamb.

And when land­ed safe above,
In the king­dom of His love,
We shall all the full­ness prove
Of the Lamb.

Now re­vive Thy work, O Lord,
By Thy Spir­it and Thy Word;
Now re­vive Thy work, O Lord,
Through the Lamb.

Strike the stout­est sin­ner through,
Start the cry, What must I do?
Make him weep till born anew
Through the Lamb.
