High in yonder heavenly courts
the ransomed sing,
Casting down their golden
crowns before their King,
Banished ev’ry grief and fear
and earthly wrong,
While the saints redeemed now
join the glad new song.
Singing to the Lamb,
who once was slain on Calvary;
Singing to the lamb
who lives through all eternity!
Oh, the wondrous song of Love,
at last complete!
Oh, the golden vials,
full of odours sweet!
Through the risen Saviour,
once for sinners slain,
We as kings and priests to God
shall ever reign.
Singing to the Lamb,
who once was slain on Calvary;
Singing to the lamb
who lives through all eternity!
Only those whose robes
are washed can join that throng;
None but lips attuned by grace
can sing that song:
Cleanse us, blessed Saviour,
from the stain of sin;
Let the glorious song
of rapture now begin!
Singing to the Lamb,
who once was slain on Calvary;
Singing to the lamb
who lives through all eternity!
