To God be the glory, great things He hath done

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.
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.

To God indeed be the Glory for The Mercy Of Jesus the Ultimate sacrifice. This hymn opens the eyes to wonder of rapture that Jesus promises.

For me and my Household, we shall witness that purer and wonder transport in Jesus name.

This is a wonderful song that inspires me. And the website is just great, My heart was filled with a burden to sing hymns to God about 2 nights ago and I stumbled on this website fortunately....May God meet you at the point of all your needs.

This is the most thrilling hymn that makes one feel high in the spirit, as right no. I'm enjoying the lyrics right in my office. Thanks for making this and others available.

I truly thank The Lord for this wonderous hymn.

I was so blessed to be raised by a strong loving Christian Family from a baby into my youth & even now in my adult life.

I strayed away & rebelled as a teenager & young adult, but now I'm older, I'm extremely blessed to still be part of that family & now also my new Christian Family where I live. It's 150km from my small family & Mother that raised me, but it's a strong loving, kind & supportive new family through the Church I have found & become a part of recently that also give me hope & help with my belated spiritual growth in the Body of Christ..

This Hymn is one of my all time favorite ones. It means so much more to me now than it ever did back in my youth.

I was a bit forgetful about many of the verses, but I thank Technology for helping me out there.

I just love singing Hymns like this one at any old time of the day or night & it's always so wonderful & handy to have the music & lyrics there for me to sing along to with just a few touches of a smartphone screen. "Dear Jesus, I pray for my brothers & sisters in Countries who don't have access to the technology as I & many like myself do. May they still come to know You through similar means of the written song & also in the form of a Bible or even if it is through word of mouth or a kind deed...? I also thank & praise You Lord Jesus for guiding me back into the fold, even though it was a really horrible tough life threatening journey I had away from you. What a strong powerful message you have brought me through to praise Your name & bear witness to others who seek to know You dear Jesus. Please use my body & voice as a vessel to let others know just how loving You & our Father are. I pray all this in Your blessed name Lord Jesus, AMEN! "For all those who live in Christian suppressed countries". God Bless you all & keep you from harms way... XXXOOO

I thank you for taking the advantage of technology to bless the world and tool the servants of God for the work of the Ministry. I got to your site as I ruminated on how to get hymns for an impromptu home service to be conducted in the USA.

So blessed. Praise the Lord.

Third, we may classify the hymns by the sentiment expressed in the hymns. This is the deepest and most important matter in choosing a hymn. The sentiment of a hymn is the tender feeling of that hymn. The more tender a hymn is, the deeper is its sentiment. Two hymns may have the same subject and be under the same subdivision, but there may be a difference between them in sentiment. For example, Hymns, #39 and #52 are both hymns on the worship of the Father, but they have very different sentiments. Hymns, #39 is a good hymn that is full of excitement. Singing this hymn may make us want to shout. In contrast, Hymns, #52 is a very tender and fine hymn, perhaps the most tender and fine hymn in the section on the worship of the Father. If we study and pray over this hymn, we will sense how deep and tender its feeling is.
