To You we bring our hymn of praise; glory be to God Hearts and hands together raised glory be to God Who spoke before the dawn of time glory be to God Veil of darkness torn by light glory be to God And with unceasing voice all heaven sings Glory be to God The anthem of the Lord's redeemed Glory be to God You purchased captives for Your saints glory be to God And opened wide the kingdom gates glory be to God You overcame the sting of death glory be to God And clothed us in Christ's righteousness glory be to God And all Your children cry with loud acclaim Glory be to God Sing O church Your sweet refrain Glory be to God Glory glory glory glory forever and ever Glory glory glory glory forever and ever Father Spirit risen Son glory be to God Who was and is and is to come glory be to God
