Lyrics
You Are Worthy To Take The Scroll
You are worthy to take the scroll
And to open its seals,
Because You were slain and with Your blood
You purchased men for God
You are worthy to take the scroll
And to open its seals,
Because You were slain and with Your blood
You purchased men for God
From every tribe and language,
From every people and nation,
You have made them a kingdom of priests
And they shall reign on the earth.
(Children and Youth)
You are worthy our Lord and God
To receive glory and honor and power,
For You created everything
And by Your will they have their being.
(Mixed Choir:)
You are worthy to take the scroll
And to open its seals,
Because You were slain and with Your blood
You purchased men for God
From every tribe and language,
From every people and nation,
You have made us a kingdom of priests
And we shall reign on the earth.
