Music by Peter Ritter, words by Frances Ridley Havergal
Worthy of homage and of praise;
Worthy by all to be adored:
Exhaustless theme of heavenly lays!
You, You are worthy, Jesus, Lord.
Now seated on Jehovah's throne,
The Lamb once slain, in glory bright:
From there You watch over Your own,
Guarding us through the deadly fight.
To You, e'en now, our song we raise,
Though sure the tribute small must prove:
No mortal tongue can tell Your ways,
So full of light and life and love.
Yet, Savior, You shall have full praise:
We soon shall meet You on the cloud,
We soon shall see You face to face,
In glory praising as we would.
