Thou, Lamb of God! didst shed Thy blood,
 
Thou didst our load of misery bear;
 
And hast exalted us to share
 
The rank of kings and priests to God.

To Thee we render evermore
 
The honor, glory, praise that’s due;
 
Might, power and obedience, too,
 
And in our hearts we Thee adore.
 
Amen! Amen!
 
O Lord, Amen!
