Jesus the Everlasting Word - a New Tune

Words by Josiah Conder 1789-1855 (modified from the Praise Version © Praise Trust)

1. Jesus, the everlasting word,
the Father’s only Son;
God manifestly seen and heard
and heaven’s beloved One:

Worthy, O Lamb of God adored,
that every tongue should call you Lord!

2. In you, most perfectly expressed,
the Father’s glories shine;
of the full deity possessed,
eternally divine:

Worthy, O Lamb of God adored,
that every tongue should call you Lord!

3. True image of the Infinite,
whose essence is concealed;
brightness of uncreated light;
the heart of God revealed:

Worthy, O Lamb of God adored,
that every tongue should call you Lord!

4. But the high mysteries of your name
an angel’s grasp transcend:
the Father only—glorious claim!—
the Son can comprehend:

Worthy, O Lamb of God adored,
that every tongue should call you Lord!

5. Lord of the universe of bliss,
its centre and its sun;
our endless theme of praise is this
to heaven’s beloved One:

Worthy, O Lamb of God adored,
that every tongue should call you Lord!
