Sometimes there\u2019s not much that can be said about a piece of music. The song points us in a direction and we follow. I mean, think about it. The \u201cNational Anthem\u201d begins. We stand. We remove our hats. We place our hands over our hearts. We sing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"IMAG1492\"<\/a>Some music leads us to prayer, like \u201cThe Lord\u2019s Prayer.\u201d Some music leads us to movement or even dance, like \u201cHe\u2019s So Good to Me,\u201d or \u201cOh, Happy Day.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And then some music leads us straight to the throne room of God where we worship and praise the King of kings and Lord of lords. Today\u2019s song is such a song.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When I hear this song, I am transported. Because of God\u2019s great love for me and the price He paid, I am able to thank Him for taking the burden of my sin. When I am in that place, I am able to worship the Lamb.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Won\u2019t you join me in the throne room? Let\u2019s lift our voices and hands to the One who is worthy of our praise. The Treasure of heaven (or as the original words say, \u201cdarling of heaven\u201d). Jesus, sitting on the throne, crowned with many crowns. The Lamb of God.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thank Him today for the price He paid for you. Thank Him today for the love and amazing grace you have received. Thank Him today for the victory you share with Jesus.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWorthy is the Lamb\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thank you for the cross Lord
\nThank you for the price You paid
\nBearing all my sin and shame
\nIn love You came and gave amazing grace<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thank you for this love Lord
\nThank you for the nail pierced hands
\nWashed me in Your cleansing flow
\nNow all I know Your forgiveness and embrace<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Chorus:<\/p>\n

Worthy is the Lamb
\nSeated on the throne
\nCrown You now with many crowns
\nYou reign victorious<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

High and lifted up
\nJesus, Son of God
\nThe Treasure (Darling) of Heaven crucified
\nWorthy is the Lamb
\nWorthy is the Lamb[i]<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are several versions of this song to be found, but my favorite is by the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir. It\u2019s so majestic, beautiful, and leads me into the throne room of God. If you would like to meet me there, click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Grace and peace be yours in abundance,<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
