HYMN 75.

Lo! round the throne, at God's right hand,
The saints in countless myriads stand;
Of ev'ry tongue redeem'd to God,
Whose souls were ransom'd by His blood.

Through tribulation great they came;
They bore the cross, despised the shame;
From all their labours now they rest,
In God's eternal glory bless'd.

They see their Saviour face to face,
And sing the triumphs of His grace;
Him day and night they ceaseless praise,
To Him their loud Hosannahs raise—

"Worthy the Lamb, for sinners slain,
Through endless years to live and reign;
Thou hast redeem'd us by Thy blood,
And made us kings and priests to God."
