(Author V.Lyons)
Gathered from the lands and nations,
Around the throne Gods’ people throng;
With Heavens’ hosts and all creation,
Millions voice a glorious song.
They sing in praise of God our Father,
And Jesus Christ the worthy lamb,
Who gave His life, a willing martyr:
Redemption bought for fallen man.
How He has made of us a kingdom,
And priesthood to our glorious God;
Declare to all eternal wisdom,
Revealed in Jesus Christ our Lord.
How blest the simple heart believing
Gods’ call to life in Jesus Christ;
Forever gone the tears and grieving:
Enraptured now in Heavens’ heights.
God wills salvation to all nations.
Christ gave His life for every man.
He takes no pleasure in damnation:
The cross, the price His love demands.
May you be part of Heavens’ chorus,
Around the throne in rapturous song,
As glory leads to greater glories,
Everlasting praise, your glad response.
