Worthy is he, that once was slain

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #134 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Worthy is he, that once was slain, The Prince of peace that groan'd and died; Worthy to rise, and live, and reign, At his almighty Father's side. 2 Pow'r and dominion are his due, Who stood condemn'd at Pilate's bar. Wisdom belongs to Jesus too, Though he was charg'd with madness here. 3 Honour immortal must be paid, Instead of scandal and of score; While glory shines about his head, And a bright crown without a thorn. 4 Blessings for ever on the Lamb, Whose blood speaks peace to wretched men, Let angels sound his sacred name; And ev'ry creature say, Amen.
