Disciples of Christ, ye friends of the Lamb,
Attend and assist in singing His fame.
Eternal thanksgiving the faithful should pay,
The living, the living, as we do this day.
 
Not only He died, but also arose,
Laid weakness aside, and over His foes
(Sin, death, and the Devil) He triumphed o'er,
And every evil, dominion, and power.
 
O merciful Lamb, who sits on the throne,
We bow at the Name, we count Thee alone
Deserving our blessing, and blessing we'll give,
Without ever ceasing as long as we live.

Disciples of Christ, ye friends of the Lamb,
Attend and assist in singing His fame.
Eternal thanksgiving the faithful should pay,
The living, the living, as we do this day.

Not only He died, but also arose,
Laid weakness aside, and over His foes
(Sin, death, and the Devil) He triumphed o'er,
And every evil, dominion, and power.

O merciful Lamb, who sits on the throne,
We bow at the Name, we count Thee alone
Deserving our blessing, and blessing we'll give,
Without ever ceasing as long as we live.
