He Is Worthy

Revelation 5:11-12

Jesus is worthy of our praise,

Worthy to be adored,

Seated at God's right hand on high.

Worthy is Christ our Lord.

All that I have belongs to Him

He gave His all for me.

His precious blood has made me clean.

From sin has set me free.

Worthy of honor for His work

Finished on Calvary's tree.

Obedient to his Father's will.

He bore sin's load for me.

I am not worth of such love,

That He should take my place.

This worthy One has died for me.

Now that's amazing grace.

Thankful for this remembrance here

Our Lord this feast has made.

His body shadowed in the bread,

His blood by wine portrayed.

As gathered 'round this worthy One,

Remembering what's He done.

Our tongues are loosed to praise His Name.

God's well beloved Son.

Worthy indeed is He alone.

Worthy of all our praise,

Worthy of our devotion too,

As on His face we gaze.

Precious Moments

Once more we have remembered Him,

Our Lord who loves us so.

His cruel death upon that cross.

His pain we'll never know.

This time we spend together here

In worship and in praise,

Is time spent in rehearsal for

Those never ending days.

This feast is just a shadow of

The blessings we will share

When Christ returns to take us home

We'll meet Him in the air.

We'll view those cruel nail prints and

The spear wound in His side.

Reminders of His matchless love,

For us, our Saviour died.

We will not see the crown of thorns

That pierced His blessed brow.

Instead we'll see a crown of gold.

He reigns in glory now.

Each time we have this privilege

That we have had today,

Remember that it won't be long

Till that unclouded day.

What will it be to dwell with Him

And gaze upon His face,

To join that heavenly choir above

And sing "Amazing Grace"?

Let us watch now for His coming.

Let's live for Him each day.

With lamps all trimmed and shining bright.

Perhaps He'll come today.
