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

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 thro' Jesus the Son
And give Him the Glory!, Great things he has done

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

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