8. A SONG OF THE REDEEMED
Salvation belongs to our God,
who will guide us to springs of living water.
1 Behold, a great multitude *
which no one could number.
2 From every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues,*
standing before the throne and the Lamb.
3 They were clothed in white robes
and had palms in their hands, *
and they cried with a loud voice, saying,
4 ‘Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, *
and to the Lamb.’
5 These are they who have come out of the great tribulation,*
they have washed their robes
and made them white in the blood of the Lamb ;
6 Therefore they stand before the throne of God, *
whom they serve day and night within the temple.
7 And the One who sits upon the throne *
will shelter them with his presence.
8 They shall never again feel hunger or thirst, *
the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat.
9 For the Lamb at the heart of the throne *
will be their Shepherd,
10. He will guide them to springs of living water,
and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.
Revelation 7.9,10,14b-17
To the one who sits on the throne and to the lamb
be blessing and honour and glory and might,*
for ever and ever. Amen.
9. A SONG OF THE LAMB
Let us rejoice and exult
and give glory and homage to our God.
1 Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,*
whose judgements are true and just.
2 Praise our God, all you his servants, *
all who fear him, both small and great.
3 The Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns:*
let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory.
4 For the marriage of the Lamb has come *
and his bride has made herself ready.
5 Blessed are those who are invited *
to the wedding banquet of the Lamb.
Revelation 19.1b,2b,5b,6b,7,9b
To the one who sits on the throne and to the lamb
be blessing and honour and glory and might, *
for ever and ever. Amen.
