To God be the glory

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 opened the life-gate that all may go in.

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!

O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood!
to ev’ry believer the promise of God;
the vilest offender who truly believes,
that moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord…

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 rapture, when Jesus we see.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord…
