Lord Al­mig­hty

He who was and is to come.

Glory

hon­or

thanks are due Him

He who sits on Heav­en’s throne.

Worship Him who lives for­ev­er;

Give Him praise and bless His pow­er.

Lord

You are wor­thy

for You cre­at­ed us;

By Your will

we ex­ist each hour.

Sing new songs: the Li­on of Ju­dah

David’s Root

has won ov­er all.

Though a Lamb

Je­sus tri­umphed—

Worthy He to op­en God’s scroll.

He was slain

with blood He pur­chased

Nations

em­pires

peo­ples and tongues.

He has made a king­dom of priests

Serving God on the earth to come.

Join the an­gels in migh­ty chor­us:

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

To re­ceive pow­er

wealth

and wis­dom

Strength and hon­or

let us pro­claim!

Every crea­ture in Heav’n

on earth and

In the sea

sing now again:

To our great God and to the Lamb

Praise and glo­ry

for­e’er. Amen!
