Song to the Lamb 138t

Tune: Arranged byDavid Patillo White, 1869
Lyrics: Isaac Watts, 1688
Meter: Common Meter (8,6,8,6)
Behold the glories of the Lamb
Amidst His Father’s throne,
Prepare new honors for His name,
And songs before unknown.

Chorus:

O the Lamb, the living Lamb,
The Lamb on Calvary,
The Lamb was slain but rose again
To intercede for me.

Now to the Lamb that once was slain
Be endless blessings paid;
Salvation, glory, joy remain
Forever on Thy head.

(Chorus)
