HYMN 62. (C. M.) Christ Jesus, the Lamb of God, worshipped by all the Creation, Rev. v. 11–13.
I
Come let us join our cheerful songsWith angels round the throne;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues
But all their joys are one.
II
‘Worthy the Lamb that dy'd,’ they cry,‘To be exalted thus:’
‘Worthy the Lamb,’ our lips reply,
‘For he was slain for us.’
III
Jesus is worthy to receiveHonour and power divine;
And blessings more than we can give,
Be, Lord, for ever thine.
IV
Let all that dwell above the sky,And air, and earth, and seas,
Conspire to lift thy glories high,
And speak thine endless praise.
V
The whole creation join in oneTo bless the sacred name
Of him that sits upon the throne,
And to adore the Lamb.
