Lyics

Come, let us join our cheerful songs

With angels round the throne;

Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,

But all their joys are one.



Worthy the Lamb that died, thy cry,

To be exalted thus!

Worthy the Lamb, our lips reply,

For he was slain for us!



Jesus is worthy to receive

Honor and pow'r divine;

And blessings more than we can give,

Be, Lord, for ever 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 th throne,

And to adore the Lamb.
