He Was Found Worthy

Representative Text

1 When none was found worthy to ransom me,
He was found worthy.
To set a world of sinners free,
He was found worthy.

Refrain:
Oh, the bleeding Lamb!
Oh, the bleeding Lamb!
Oh, the bleeding Lamb!
He was found worthy.

2 To take the Book and loose the seal,
He was found worthy.
To bruise the head that bruised His heel,
He was found worthy. [Refrain]

3 To bridge the gulf 'twixt man and God,
He was found worthy.
And save the rebels by His blood.
He was found worthy. [Refrain]

4 To open wide the gates of heav'n,
He was found worthy.
To Him all majesty is giv'n.
He was found worthy. [Refrain]

5 To reign o'er all the ransom'd race,
He was found worthy.
I've tasted of His saving grace.
He was found worthy. [Refrain]

6 His blood has wash'd me white as snow,
He was found worthy.
And all His fulness I shall know.
He was found worthy. [Refrain]
