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 our redemption to win,
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;
Oh, come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory; great things He hath done.
2
Oh, 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.
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.
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.
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.

There is such power and anointing as you sing this song. The presence of Jesus descends in such a beautiful way that you feel Him so near. The things of this earthly life fade away as you take in the reality of what Jesus has done for every human on this planet. Oh that the reality of the love and freedom that can be experienced in our Saviour Jesus can be shared more and more before He returns to Earth in the second coming.

I said these words aloud in a prayer, "To God be the glory" as a finish line. Then I got curious if it was a motto or flag, and was thrilled it is a simple piano melody. Perfect end to this day in my little home.

This song reminds me of my childhood days, we used to sing it a lot. I love this song with a Passion anytime I hear it. There is a kind of feeling I can't really explain. I love this song.

I had never heard the hymn before, but I love it. I'm working on a CD only of hymns, and I may add this one to it, with a revision here or there. It's beautiful.

This song brings back the memories that Jesus died for us to live! Therefore, it's now up to us to know that we'll one day account for the life. Life is good especially one well spent. Give your life to the One who died so that you'll live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This hymn is amazing! The meaning and the music brings with it a synergy that only inspiration can equal.
