Tune: Es ist Ein Ross
('A great and mighty wonder')
Revelation 1 v.5-8 parts
*******
John given revelation
It be to each nation
From Jesus Christ the faithful
Witness, Saviour of all
Chorus
He Alpha, Omega* (* the 'A to Z')
Beginning and the end sure
Now lives for evermore
He first begotten of dead
Now reigns, our living Head
He ruler o'er kings (and queens) of earth
Sing praises, give Him worth - Chorus
He has loved us, and us cleansed
The Father did Him send
Washed from our sins in His blood
Here be a sparkling flood - Chorus
He has made us priests (and priestesses) and kings (and queens)
To God the Father, brings
Each Him offering, service
It be true freedom this - Chorus
To God be glory ever
Dominion ends never
He the Lord God Almighty
Was, is, ever shall be - Chorus
