-Behold the glories of the Lamb
-Amidst his Father's throne;
-Prepare new honors for His name,
-And songs before unknown.
-Those are the prayers of the saints,
-And these the hymns they raise,
-Jesus is kind to our complaints,
-He loves to hear our praise.
-Thou hast redeemed our souls with blood,
-Hast set the prisoners free;
-Hast made us kings and priests to God,
-And we shall reign with Thee.
-The worlds of nature and of grace
-Are put beneath Thy power;
-Then shorten these delaying days,
-And bring the promised hour.}}
