Worthy is the lamb,

To Him be glory, and honor and praise

Who seats upon the throne,
To Him be glory and honor and power for ever and ever

The Angels bow down, in adoration,
We join them now as we lift our voices, crying holy,

Meaning & Inspiration
“Worthy Is the Lamb” by Sinach is a short worship song taken from the language of Revelation. The opening says, “Worthy is the Lamb that was slain,” and adds, “To Him be glory, and honor and praise.” The second part addresses the Lamb on the throne with glory, honor, and power forever and ever, ending in “Amen.”
These lines are close to Revelation 5:12-13, where the heavenly voices declare that the slain Lamb is worthy to receive power, riches, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing. The song then adds that the angels bow in adoration and that the congregation joins them, lifting voices and crying “Holy.” That recalls Isaiah 6:3 and Revelation 4:8.
The song closes with the declaration repeated and a final “Amen.” Its focus is the worth of Christ and the joining of earthly worship with heavenly worship.
