1  Come, let us sing the song of songs,

    The saints of old began the strain,

    The blessing which to Christ belongs:

    Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!

 2  Slain to redeem us by His blood,

    To cleanse from every sinful stain;

    And make us kings and priests to God;

    Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!

 3  Long as we live, and should we die,

    And while in light with Him we reign,

    This song our song of songs shall be:

    Worthy the Lamb, for He was slain!
