Thanksgiving: The Lamb Upon The Throne

The Lamb Upon the Throne

O Lord God, the hosts unnumbered, washed in the blood, are bowing before Thee now, proclaiming eternal honours to Him that sitteth upon the Throne and to the Lamb. Behold all the angels in heaven join in the selfsame adoration, ascribing all honour and praise unto the Lord our God. And we, in the outward rank, further off from the central Throne, bow also, and here upon this darkened planet we worship Him who made heaven and earth. We worship the blessed One who hath redeemed us with His precious blood, and we worship that glorious Spirit by whom we have been quickened and called unto the knowledge of God. Unto the one God of Abraham, of Isaac and of Jacob, the God and Father of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, unto Him be glory for ever and ever, and from the very bottom of our hearts we utter this our doxology. Amen.
