LyicsWHAT glory gilds the sacred page
Majestic as the sun!
It gives a light to every age--
It gives, but borrows none.
What everlasting thanks are due
For such a bright display!
Till glory breaks upon our view,
In everlasting day.
1ST CHORUS.
Through all eternity to thee,
A joyful song we'll raise;
For O, eternity's too short,
To utter all thy praise.
2D CHORUS.
Let God our Father and the Son
Forever be adored;
Where there are works to make them known,
Or saints to love the Lord.
3D CHORUS.
To God the Father and the Son,
Whom all the saints adore,
Be everlasting honors done,
Henceforth, forevermore.
