Lamb of God, Thy Right We Own

Lamb of God

Thy right we own;

Worthy Thou

and Thou alone

The mys­te­ri­ous book t’ex­plain

Teeming with the fates of man

Thou shalt op­en ev­ery seal

Every pro­phe­cy ful­fill.

Power exe­cu­tive is Thine:

Prodigal of blood di­vine

Thou hast dear­ly bought Thine own

Laid the pre­cious ran­som down

Given by Thy Fa­ther’s grace

Slain for all our help­less race.

We who in Thy death con­fide

Conscious of Thy blood ap­plied

Now the Gos­pel bless­ing prove

Fruit of Thy red­eem­ing love

Daily find in serv­ing Thee

Love is per­fect li­ber­ty.

By the Spir­it of Thy grace

Thy dis­ting­uished wit­ness­es

Out of all the world­ly throng

Every na­tion

tribe

and tongue

Called

and se­pa­rat­ed for Thine

Now we in Thine im­age shine.

Thou hast by Thy hal­low­ing blood

Consecrated us to God

And we in the Ho­li­est Place

Offer up our pray­er and praise

Ceaseless Ab­ba

Fa­ther cry

Kings and priests of the Most High.

Mightier joys or­dained to know

When Thou com’st to reign be­low

We shall at Thy side sit down

Partners of Thy great white throne

Kings a thou­sand years with Thee

Kings thro’ all eter­ni­ty.
