NATIONS BOW, heavens sing
Glory to our God and king
Let earth shout and people sing
With one voice we will praise him
Alleluia, alleluia.
Alleluia, alleluia.
Holy is the lamb,
The one who gave his life
Holy is the lamb
For love is the reason He died
And rose again
Holiness adorns Your house
Love abounds where You are found
In Your hands, mercy’s gift
Grace poured out over all sin
Mighty saviour, great I Am
Worthy is the risen Lamb
Now to join, heavens song
Sing Alleluia, alleluia
James Rogers
