1. By the sea of crystal,
saints in glory stand,
myriads in number,
drawn from ev’ry land.
Robed in white apparel,
washed in Jesus’ blood,
they now reign in heaven
with the Lamb of God.
2. Out of tribulation,
death and Satan’s hand,
they have been translated
at the Lord’s command.
In their hands they’re holding
palms of victory;
hark! the jub’lant chorus
shouts triumphantly:
3. “Unto God Almighty,
sitting on the throne,
and the Lamb, victorious,
be the praise alone.
God has wrought salvation,
he did wondrous things;
who shall not extol you,
holy King of kings?”
