Behold the Lamb with glory crowned,
|
|
| 1. | Behold the Lamb with glory crowned, |
| | To Him all pow'r is giv'n: |
| | No place too high for Him is found, |
| | No place too high in heav'n. |
| 2. | He fills the throne-the throne above; |
| | Its rights to Him belong; |
| | The object of His Father's love, |
| | Theme of the ransomed's song. |
| 3. | Though high yet He accepts the praise |
| | His people offer here; |
| | The faintest, feeblest note they raise |
| | Will reach the Savior's ear. |
| 4. | This song be ours, we join in one |
| | To celebrate the Name |
| | Of Him that sits upon the throne, |
| | And to exalt the Lamb. |
| 5. | To Him whom men despise and slight, |
| | To Him be glory giv'n; |
| | The crown is His, and His by right |
| | The highest place in heav'n. |
