Worthy

(альбом: Trophies Of Grace - 1986)

I stood there in amazement
Tears filled my eyes
The book must be opened
But no one qualified
My eyes scanned the crowd
Hoping something could be done
Many there were willing
But worthy there were none

Satan's dream to rule us
Seemed right there in his grasp
I could almost hear the demons
As they all began to laugh
Hopelessly I looked again
And I was so amazed
To see the elders laughing
And a smile on every face

Then the angels started singing
And the harps began to play
And I listened with excitement
To hear what they would say
Well, Satan raised his head again
And gave a mighty roar
And then they sang a new song
One I'd never heard before

They sang worthy, Thou art worthy
Worthy is the Lamb
Slain before the world began
They sang worthy, Thou art worthy
Everyone bow down
Because worthy is the Lamb

Overcome with excitement
I got down on my knees
Wiped the tears from my eyes
Then strained so I could see
Stepping from the shadows
He moved without a sound
Not the warrior I'd expected
He was just a little lamb

Then as He took the book in His hands
I raised both of mine
Overwhelmed by His glory
And His grace so divine
Just to think that mighty Satan
Spent his life a roaring lion
And Heaven overcame him
With just a little lamb

They sang worthy, Thou art worthy
Worthy is the Lamb
Slain before the world began
They sang worthy, Thou art worthy
Everyone bow down
Because worthy is the Lamb

Everything that had breath praised the Lord
Of earth and sea and heaven in one accord

They sang worthy, Thou art worthy
Worthy is the Lamb
Slain before the world began
They sang worthy, Thou art worthy
Everyone bow down
Because worthy is the Lamb

He's so worthy, Thou art worthy
Oh, worthy is the Lamb
Slain before the world began
They sang worthy, Thou art worthy
(Worthy, so worthy)
Everyone bow down
Because worthy is, worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb
