O Lord, we adore Thee,
 
For Thou art the slain One
 
That livest forever,
 
Enthronèd in heaven;
 
O Lord! we adore Thee,
 
For Thou hast redeemed us;
 
Our title to glory
 
We read in Thy blood.

Thy greatness, Thy glory!

On earth and in heaven;
 
How rich is Thy mercy!
 
How great Thy salvation!
 
We bless Thee, we praise Thee:
 
Amen, and Amen.
