Words
⤢ Full screenWorthy, worthy is the Lamb,
Worthy, worthy is the Lamb;
Worthy, worthy is the Lamb
That was slain.
Chorus.
Glory, hallelujah,
Praise him, hallelujah;
Glory, hallelujah
To the Lamb.
Saviour, let thy kingdom come!
Now the man of sin consume;
Bring thy blest millenium,
Holy Lamb.
Thus may we each moment feel.
Love him, serve him, praise him still,
Till we all on Zion's hill
See the Lamb.
About this hymn
As printed As printed: hymn number «135», tune name «WORTHY. P. M.», «Unknown.» at the right (capitals and small capitals); running head «WORSHIP—ADORATION OF CHRIST.». A pencil annotation of the exemplar («Early Advent», handwritten) fills the space between «135» and «WORTHY.»; it is not part of the print. Stanza 1 is interlinear under system 1, with «1.» before «Worthy» («Worthy» printed as a whole word under two notes); system 2 is headed «Chorus.» (bold, above the treble staff) and carries «Glo - ry, hal - le - lu - jah, Praise him, hal - le - lu - jah; Glo - ry, hal - le - lu - jah To the Lamb.». The chorus is printed once; stanzas 2 and 3 (text below the music, left and right column, numbers without a period) are sung to the verse music and followed by the same chorus, which is not repeated in print. «Anon.» in italics at the right after stanza 3. The print sets a thin space before «!» and «;» («come !», «consume ;»); it is closed up here. «millenium» (one «n») and the period after «feel.» are the print's. Spelling («Saviour»), punctuation and capitals are the print's. The last line of each stanza is indented in the print.
