O God! Thou now hast glorified
 
Thy holy, blest, eternal Son;
 
The Nazarene, the Crucified,
 
Now sits exalted on Thy throne!
 
To Him in faith we cry aloud,
 
Worthy art Thou, O Lamb of God!
“And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.” (Matthew 2:23)
“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets. Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds. Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high.” (Hebrews 1:1-3)
“And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.” (John 8:35)
“For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.” (1 Corinthians 2:2)
“Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places.” (Ephesians 1:20)
“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)
2
Father, Thy holy name we bless,
 
Gracious and just Thy wise decree,
 
That every tongue shall soon confess
 
Jesus the Lord of all to be!
 
But, oh! Thy grace has taught us now
 
Before that Lord the knee to bow.
“And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:11)
“For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Ephesians 3:14)
3
Him as our Lord we gladly own:
 
To Him alone we now would live,
 
Who bowed our hearts before Thy throne,
 
And gave us all that love could give.
 
Our willing voices cry aloud,
 
Worthy art Thou, O Lamb of God!
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” (Romans 10:9)
“Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.” (1 Corinthians 12:3)
“And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.” (2 Corinthians 5:15)
“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)
