Verse1
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.
[[Chorus]]
Praise the Lord ! praise the Lord !
Let the earth hear His voice !
Praise the Lord ! praise the Lord !
Let the people rejoice !
Oh, come to the Father,
through Jesus the Son ;
And give Him the glory—
great things He hath done!
Verse2
O perfect redemption,
the purchase of blood,
To every believe the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus
a pardon receives.
Verse3
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.
