Lyics

Come, let us join our cheerful songs

With angels round the throne;

Ten thousand thousand are the tongues,

But all their joys are one.



Worthy the Lamb that died, they cry,

To be exalted thus!

Worthy the Lamb, our lips reply,

For he was slain for us!



Jesus is worthy to receive

Honor and power divine;

And blessings more than we can give,

Be, Lord, forever thine.



Let all who dwell above the sky,

On earth, in air, and seas,

Conspire to lift thy glories high,

And speak thy endless praise,



The whole creation join in one,

To bless the sacred name

Of him that sits upon the throne,

And to adore the Lamb.
