O MOST HIGH, KING OF THE AGES,
great I AM, God of wonders;
by the blood you have redeemed us,
led us through mighty waters:
our strength, our song, our sure salvation.

Now to the Lamb upon the throne
be blessing, honour, glory, power,
for the battle you have won—
hallelujah, amen!

2 O Most High, dwelling among us:
Son of man sent for sinners.
By your blood you have redeemed us:
spotless Lamb, mighty Saviour,
who lived, who died, who rose victorious.

Now to the Lamb upon the throne
be blessing, honour, glory, power,
for the battle you have won—
hallelujah!

With every tribe and every tongue
we join the anthem of the angels
in the triumph of the Son—
hallelujah, amen!

3 O Most High, King of the nations:
robed in praise, crowned with splendour;
on that day, who will not tremble?
when you stand, Christ the victor
who was, and is, and is for ever.

Now to the Lamb upon the throne
be blessing, honour, glory, power,
for the battle you have won—
hallelujah!

With every tribe and every tongue
we join the anthem of the angels
in the triumph of the Son—
hallelujah, amen!

Amen, amen, amen.
Amen, amen, amen.
Amen, amen, amen.

Now to the Lamb upon the throne
be blessing, honour, glory, power,
for the battle you have won—
hallelujah!

With every tribe and every tongue
we join the anthem of the angels
in the triumph of the Son—
hallelujah, amen!

Sing the victory of the Lamb: hallelujah, amen!

Amen!
