102. Come, Let Us Join Our Cheerful Songs

C.M.
by I. Watts
1
Come, let us join our cheerful songs,
 
And thus approach the throne:
 
Had we ten thousand thousand tongues,
 
Our theme of joy’s but one:
2
"Worthy the Lamb that’s gone on high
 
To be exalted thus";
 
"Worthy the Lamb that died," we cry,
 
"For He was slain for us."
“Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.” (Revelation 5:12)
“And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.” (Revelation 5:6)
3
Jesus is worthy to receive
 
Honor and power divine:
 
And blessings more than we can give
 
Be, Lord, forever Thine.
4
Soon shall the saints, exalted high,
 
A glorious anthem raise;
 
And all that dwell beneath the sky
 
Speak forth Thine endless praise.
5
Redeemed creation join in one,
 
T’ adore the sacred name
 
Of Him that sits upon the throne,
 
And to exalt 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)
