Worthy Is the Lamb

The veil of heaven opened wide The scene was clearly set

John saw a scroll writ either side Where seven seals were met

With booming voice the angel said To now unseal the scroll

But none was found to meet the task Not even one lone soul

Worthy, worthy, worthy is the Lamb Worthy, worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Convulsed with tears and broken heart

John's hope was now assailed "Weep not," the elder counseled him, "A Lion has prevailed!"

No lion came to take his claim

No beast of royal reign

Instead there stood a bloodied Lamb Like one who had been slain

Ten thousand times, ten thousand more The host of heaven cried

All blessing, honor, glory, and pow'r

To Christ, the Lamb that died

Christ the Lamb, who was slain
