Lyrics
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on
Heaven’s mercy seat
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on
Heaven’s mercy seat
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You, I will adore You
Clothed in rainbows of living color
Flashes of lighting rolls of thunder
Blessing and honor strength and glory and power be
To You the only one who’s King
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You
I will, I will adore You (adore You)
Filled with wonder, awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your name
Jesus Your name is power, breath and living water
Such a marvelous mystery
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty (we worship you)
Who was and is and is to come, yeah (we worship you)
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You

About This Song
I gave my life to Jesus back in 1988. There was a new song out at the time entitled, "I Hear Angels" by Garrit Gustafson. The lyrics read: "I hear angels singing praises, I see men from every nation, bowing down before the throne… like the sound of many waters… like the rushing wind around us… multitudes join the song… and a symphony of praise arises… tears are wiped away from eyes as men from every tongue and tribe all sing…. Holy, holy… God almighty… who was, and is, and is to come…"
I remember looking up and around asking, "Where, God? I want to see and hear that too!" Those prophetic words from Mr. Gustafson took residence within me, became the lullaby sung over each of my children, and fueled an earnest, decade-long prayer to see multitudes gathered around the throne.
Back in 1999, I again began telling Him how much I wanted to see and hear all creation worshipping Him. The songs being sung by the bride at that time were focusing on need. My heart longed to focus on something far greater than my need, knowing that all needs would be satisfied with just one glimpse of Him.
Therefore, I asked the Holy Spirit to help me write a song that painted Him--a song that the angels and creation were already singing, so that we could join in with one voice, as one bride, to one King. I put the baby down to play with his toys, picked up the guitar, and began to play four chords I had figured out how to play the day before. Immersed in Scriptures from Ezekiel and Revelation, the Lord helped me paint what I was seeing through those passages: "Clothed in rainbows of living color, flashes of lightning, rolls of thunder..." - Jennie Lee Riddle (songwriter)
