Hymn

ENGLISH LYRICS: To God be the glory

Give unto the Lord the glory. Ps. 29:2

1.  To God be the glory, great things He hath done,
    So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
    Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
    And open'd the Life Gate that all may go in.

Chorus:
    Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
    Let the earth hear His voice!
    Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
    Let the people rejoice!
    O come to the Father, through
    Jesus the Son;
    And give Him the glory! Great things, He hath done!


2. O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood
    To every believer the promise of God;
    The vilest offender who truly believes,
    That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

3. Great things He hath taught us, great things He hath done,
    And great our rejoicing through
    Jesus the Son;
    But purer, and higher, and greater will be
    Our wonder, our transport when
    Jesus we see.
Amen.
