Lyrics
How can I say thanks
For the things You have done for me,
Things so undeserved,
Yet You gave to prove Your love for me.
The voices of a million angels
Could not express my gratitude.
All that I am and ever hope to be,
I owe it all to Thee.
Chorus
To God be the glory,
To God be the glory,
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done.
He has done.
Just let me live my life,
Let it be pleasing, Lord, to Thee,
Should I gain any praise,
Let it go to Calvary.
Chorus
To God be the glory,
To God be the glory,
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done.
He has done.
With His blood He has saved me,
With His power He has raised me,
To God be the glory,
For the things He has done.
He has done great things
He has done great things, yeah
How great is our God
Sing with me, how great is our God
And all will see how great, how great is our God
Oh, How great is our God
Sing with me, how great is our God
And all will see how great, how great is our God
Our God, Our God, How great is our God
How can I say thanks
For the things You have done for me.

Meaning & Inspiration
My Tribute Medley centers on gratitude that ordinary language cannot fully express. The opening confession measures undeserved mercy against the image of countless angelic voices, yet concludes that even such a chorus would fall short. Praise therefore becomes more than admiration: the singer offers an entire life back to God and asks that any honor received be directed to Calvary. The repeated declaration gives the medley a clear center in the glory of God rather than human achievement.
Its later movement from salvation and resurrection language into declarations of divine greatness broadens that thanksgiving into worship. The lyrics connect personal testimony with communal praise, moving from what God has done for one life to a call that all may recognize His greatness. The theme closely reflects Psalm 115:1, where glory belongs to the Lord because of His love and faithfulness, while the reference to the blood and Calvary places gratitude within the saving work of Christ.
