There Stood A Lamb

(album: No Greater Sacrifice - 1996)

He was standing in heaven
With tears in his eyes
Saying, tell me this isn't so
For there was one in heaven
And no one on earth
Worthy to open the scroll
Then one of the elders
Said, John don't you cry
It was all part of the plan
Then in the center
Of God's glorious throne
Hallelujah, there stood a lamb

And they sang worthy
Worthy of honor and praise
They were casting down crowns
And praising His name
When he cried, who is worthy?
I can hear Jesus saying, I am
Oh, praise God, forever
There stood a Lamb

Now open your Bible
Open your heart
It's clear we are in last days
And he said I'll come quickly
So don't be surprised
When he comes back to take us away
And feeble excuses won't get very far
When you find yourself
There at His throne
If you know Jesus
And He is your Lord
Hallelujah, you won't be alone

And we'll sing worthy
Worthy of honor and praise
We'll be casting down crowns
And praising His name
When he says, are you worthy?
I can hear Jesus saying, I am
Oh, praise God, forever
There stood a Lamb

And we'll sing worthy
Worthy of honor and praise
As we cast down our crowns
We'll be praising his name
When he says, are you worthy?
I can hear Jesus saying, I am
Oh, praise God, forever
Praise God, forever
Praise God, forever
There stood a Lamb
