95. Break Forth and Sing the Song

S.M.
by I. Watts, 1709; altered by W. Hammond, 1745
1
Break forth and sing the song
 
Of "Glory to the Lamb!"
 
Wake every heart and every tongue
 
To praise the Savior’s name.
2
Sing of His dying love;
 
Sing of His rising power;
 
Sing how He intercedes above
 
For those whose sins He bore.
3
Sing on your heavenly road,
 
Ye sons of glory, sing;
 
To the ascended Lamb of God,
 
Your cheerful praises bring.
4
Soon shall we hear Him say,
 
"Ye ransomed pilgrims, come";
 
Soon will He call us hence away,
 
And take us to His home.
5
Then shall each raptured tongue
 
His fullest praise proclaim;
 
And sweeter voices wake the song
 
Of "Glory to the Lamb!"
“And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.” (Revelation 5:13)
