Author: James Allen, 1734-1804 Hymnal: Together in Song #221 (1999) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Scripture: Psalm 148:1-6 Lyrics: 1 Glory to God on high!
Let heaven and earth reply,
'Praise, praise his name!'
Angels his love adore,
Who all our sorrows bore
and saints cry evermore,
'Worthy the Lamb!'
2 All those around the throne
cheerfully join in one,
praising his name;
we, who have felt his blood
sealing our peace with God,
sound his dear fame abroad,
'Worthy the Lamb!'
3 Join, all the ransomed race,
our Lord and God to bless:
praise, praise his name;
in him we will rejoice,
making a cheerful noise,
shouting with heart and voice,
'Worthy the Lamb!'
4 Though we must we change our place,
yet we will never cease
praising his name;
to him we'll tribute bring,
hail him our gracious King;
and without ceasing sing,
'Worthy the Lamb!' Topics: Adoration and Praise; Celebration of Faith; Communion of Saints; Jesus Christ Redeemer; Jesus Christ Reign; Lamb of God; Reconciliation; Worship Gathering Languages: English Tune Title: MOSCOW
