To God be the glory great things he has done! So loved He the world that He gave us His Son, Who yielded His life and 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, O’ come to the Father thru Jesus the Son And give Him the glory great things He hath done.

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, O’ come to the Father thru Jesus the Son And give Him the glory great things He hath done.
