53. Chorus

Worthy is the Lamb that was slain,
and hath redeemed us to God by His blood,
to receive power,
and riches,
and wisdom,
and strength,
and honour,
and glory,
and blessing.

Blessing and honour,
glory and power,
be unto Him
that sitteth upon the throne,
and unto the Lamb,
for ever and ever.

Amen.

  3. If we spent more time glorifying God, we would have less time to trash the beautiful creation He has given us. We would spend more time being stewards and less time acting like owners. Thank you for this reminder of who is in charge.
