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.

Beautiful song! I am awake at midnight and this song came to my mind and I had to look up the words. I love older songs that touch your heart, they are truly inspired by the Holy Spirit and not by man!

Our God is a great God. All other Gods are the works of men. So to Him alone be all the glory and adoration.

I LOVE the lyrics to this song. Mind you, there is a slight difference in the first verse, to what I'm familiar with.
"....Who yielded His life, an atonement for sin...." Same idea, though, so it's all good! The point is, ALL may go in. "The Vilest offender, who truly believes..."
