1 Hark! the choirs of angels crying,
Glory to the Lamb once slain,
None in heaven or earth denying
Tribute to the Saviour's name.
2 Ye for whom His life was given,
Higher themes to you belong,
Wake then here the joy of heaven,
Raise the everlasting song.
3 See how God hath now enthroned Him
At His own right hand on high,
There the heavenly hosts have owned Him,
Filling with His praise the sky.
4 Filled with blest anticipation,
Chant as soon to be above;
Sweet the theme--a free salvation,
Fruit of everlasting love.
5 Endless life in Him possessing,
Let us praise His glorious name,
Glory, honor, pow'r, and blessing
Be forever to the Lamb.
