Text:Praise

CCL. Praise

1 Worthy art thou, the First of Days,
Forever live, forever reign;
All blessing, glory, pow'r and praise
Be thine, from earth's foundation slain.

2 Ye angels, bow at Jesus' feet.
Let elders tune their harps aloud.
And bending from the radiant seat,
Triumphant spirits shout the God.

3 Amen, the prime archangel cries,
Amen— all heav'n returns Amen;
Worthy is Christ the earth replies,
And worlds repeat the glorious strain.
