First Line: To God be the glory! great things

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.

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 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.

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
