Lyics

GLORY, glory, everlasting,

Be to Him who bore the cross,

Who redeem'd our souls by tasting

Death, the death deserv'd by us:

Sound his glory

While our heart with transport glows.



Jesus' love is love unbounded,

Without measure, without end;

Human thought is here confounded;

'Tis too vast to comprehend;

Praise the Saviour;

Magnify the sinner's Friend.



While we hear the wondrous story

Of the Saviour's cross and shame,

Sing we, "Everlasting glory

Be to God and to the Lamb!"

Saints and angels,

Give ye glory to his name.
