“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
To receive power and riches and wisdom,
And strength and honor and glory and blessing!”
(Rev 5:12)
Inspired by the text of Revelation 5:12, Don Wyrtzen wrote and composed this hymn while in Mexico City assisting evangelist Luis Palau in 1970. Since that time, Wyrtzen's work and passion have been "to communicate truth from scripture and from music that will touch and transform people's lives."
Often referred to as "the poet of the piano" because of his virtuoso playing and improvisational ability. Wyrtzen has arranged or composed over 400 anthems and sacred songs and worked with many well-known artists in the Christian music field.
I read a quote by Watchmen Nee recently that says, "Prayer is a warfare, but praise is a victory."
Few hymns proclaim Christ's victory more expressly than this:
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
To receive power and riches and wisdom and strength
Honor and glory and blessing
Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
Worthy is the Lamb
Blessings,
