1	'Tis the Church triumphant singing,
	Worthy the Lamb;
	Heav'n throughout with praises ringing,
	Worthy the Lamb.
	Thrones and pow'rs before Him bending,
	Odors sweet with voice ascending
	Swell the chorus never ending,
	Worthy the Lamb. 

2	Ev’ry kindred, tongue and nation,
	Worthy the Lamb;
	Join to sing the great salvation,
	Worthy the Lamb.
	Loud as mighty thunders roaring,
	Floods of mighty waters pouring,
	Prostrate at His feet adoring,
	Worthy the Lamb. 

3	Harps and songs forever sounding,
	Worthy the Lamb;
	Mighty grace o'er sin abounding,
	Worthy the Lamb.
	By His blood He dearly bought us;
	Wand'ring from the fold He sought us,
	And to glory safely brought us;
	Worthy the Lamb. 

5	Sing with blest anticipation
	Worthy the Lamb;
	Through the vale of tribulation,
	Worthy the Lamb.
	Sweetest notes, all notes excelling,
	On the theme forever dwelling,
	Still untold, though ever telling,
	Worthy the Lamb.
