To God and to the Lamb Who is the great "I AM"; While millions join the theme, I will sing, I will sing, While millions join the theme, I will sing. 4 And when from death I'm free, I'll sing on, I'll sing on; And when from death I'm free, I'll sing on. And when from death I'm free, I'll sing and joyful be; And thro' eternity, I'll sing on, I'll sing on, And thro' eternity I'll sing on.
