GMWA Women of Worship Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The four and twenty elders
Fall down before him that sat on the throne
And worship Him that liveth forever
And cast down their crown before the throne

Oh holy, holy, holy
Lord God Almighty
Which was and is, and is to come
Give glory and honor and thanks to Him
That sat on the throne
Who liveth forever and ever
More

His name is holy (holy, holy)
His name is wonderful (wonderful, wonderful)
His name is worthy, worthy, worthy, worthy, worthy, worthy (worthy, worthy)
Forever and ever

Thou art worthy
You are worthy
Thou art worthy
Ohhh
To receive glory and honor
Forever and ever

We give you thanks
For the rest of our days
We magnify you
We glorify you
We adore you
We exalt you
Forever and ever

We adore you
Worthy of honor
Wonderful, mighty God
Prince of Peace, Counselor
You're worthy
You're worthy
Forever and ever

Forever and ever more
Forever and ever more

Forever and ever...

Forever and ever more
Forever and ever more

Forever and ever more
