Worthy is he to reign
Who once for us was slain;
Praise ye his name:
He did for us atone,
Worthy is he alone,
Of the eternal throne;
Worthy the Lamb.
He from his high abode,
Where he was one with God,
To this earth came;
Came here to bleed and die,
That we might reach the sky,
And we will every cry
Worthy the Lamb.
Worthy is he of power
Who bore in sorrow’s hour
Our curse and shame;
Worthy is he of praise
Through everlasting days
Who now the sceptre sways;
Worthy the Lamb.
Worthy to be adored
Is he our King and Lord;
Worthy of fame:
All who his goodness taste
Sing ye till earth is past,
Sing ye while heaven shall last,
Worthy the Lamb.
