1 Here from all nations, all tongues, and all peoples,
countless the crowd, but their voices are one;
vast is the sight and majestic their singing:
"God has the victory: he reigns from the throne!"

2 These have come out of the hardest oppression;
now they may stand in the presence of God,
serving their Lord day and night in his temple,
ransomed and cleansed by the Lamb's precious blood.

3 Gone is their thirst, and no more shall they hunger;
God is their shelter, his power at their side;
sun shall not pain them, no burning will torture;
Jesus the Lamb is their shepherd and guide.

4 He will go with them to clear living water
flowing from springs which his mercy supplies.
Gone is their grief, and their trials are over;
God wipes away every tear from their eyes.

5 Blessing and glory and wisdom and power
be to the Savior again and again;
might and thanksgiving and honor forever
be to our God: alleluia! Amen.
