Worship Songs: "The Song of the Lamb"

Revelation 15 Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and amazing, seven angels with seven plagues, which are the last, for with them the wrath of God is finished.
And I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mingled with fire—and also those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its name, standing beside the sea of glass with harps of God in their hands. And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,
“Great and amazing are your deeds,
    O Lord God the Almighty!
Just and true are your ways,
    O King of the nations!
Who will not fear, O Lord,
    and glorify your name?
For you alone are holy.
    All nations will come
    and worship you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed.

The Songs of the Revelation are simple, yet strong. They simply point us to what God has done, and to the Character His acts reveal. When it all boils down - after all the acts of history are past and He has judged righteously, it comes to this: He alone is Holy and worthy of our worship. These songs are great primers, rehearsal tracks, for what we will sing. Let us practice well and often, focusing on God's mighty deeds, and His flawless character, giving Him the glory He deserves.
