The Lamb That Was Slain

In the far bet­ter land of glo­ry and light

The ran­somed are sing­ing in gar­ments of white;

The harp­ers are harp­ing

and all the bright train

Sing the song of re­demp­tion

the Lamb that was slain.

The Lamb

the Lamb

the Lamb that was slain

The Lamb

the Lamb

the Lamb that was slain.

Like the sound of the sea swells their chor­us of praise

Round the star cir­cled crown of the An­cient of Days

And thrones and do­min­ions re-ec­ho the strain

Of the glo­ry eter­nal

to Him that was slain.

To Him

to Him

to Him that was slain

To Him

to Him

to Him that was slain.

Dear Sav­ior

may we with our voic­es so faint

Sing the chor­us ce­les­ti­al with an­gel and saint?

Oh

yes! we will sing

and Thine ear we will gain

In the song of re­demp­tion

the Lamb that was slain.

The Lamb

the Lamb

the Lamb that was slain

The Lamb

the Lamb

the Lamb that was slain.

Now

child­ren

and teach­ers

and friends all unite

In a loud hal­le­lu­jah with the ran­somed in light;

To Je­sus we’ll sing that me­lo­di­ous strain

The song of re­demp­tion

the Lamb that was slain.

The Lamb

the Lamb

the Lamb that was slain

The Lamb

the Lamb

the Lamb that was slain.
