165. Now to the Lamb that once was slain

1 Now to the Lamb that once was slain
Be endless blessings paid;
Salvation, glory, joy, remain
For ever on His head!

2 Thou hast redeemed our souls with Blood,
Has set the prisoners free,
Hast made us kings and priests to God,
And we shall reign with Thee.
