Lord and Lamb

"Give unto the Lord the glory due unto His name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.... In His temple doth every one speak of His glory. The Lord sitteth upon the flood; yea, the Lord sitteth King forever" (Psalm 29:2,9,10). "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day: and he saw it, and was glad.... Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I AM" (John 8:56,58).

We give to God the glory due
That glorifies His name
As we worship Him and view
His majesty and fame.

He sits forever as the King
Upon the judgment flood,
Yet as the Lamb of God would bring
Salvation through His blood.

For everyone within His temple
Can see redemption's story.
On holy ground we stand and tremble:
The Lamb is all the glory!

As Lord, His truth was satisfied
By all the flood destroyed;
As Lamb, He would be crucified,
And mercy was enjoyed.

Before the flood in Abel's lamb,
God's grace was on display.
So Noah too with Abraham
Rejoiced to see His day.

We worship now the great I AM
As all His names unfold,
And in His glory as God's Lamb
What beauty we behold!
