1 Venid, nuestras voces alegres unamos
Al coro celeste del trono en redor:
Sus voces se cuentan por miles de miles,
Mas todas son una en su gozo y amor.
2 "Es digno el cordero que ha muerto," proclaman,

3 Digno eres, Jesús, de alcanzar en los cielos
Poder y riquezas y gloria y honor,
Y las bendiciones que darte podemos
Se eleven por siempre a tu trono, Señor.
4 Que todos los seres que hiciera tu mano
Que pueblan la tierra, y el aire y el mar,
Unidos proclamen tus glorias eternas,
Y dente alabanzas, Señor, sin cesar.
5 El nombre, sagrado del Dios de los cielos
A una bendiga la gran creación,
Y llegue al cordero sentado en el trono
El dulce tributo de su adoración.
