To God be the Glory


   A                       E7             A
To God be the glory, great things He hath done!
   D            A             B7       E7
So loved He the world that He gave His Son,
    A                   E7            A
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin
     D	       A             E7         A
And opened the lifegate that all may go in.


Chorus:

A
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
                        E7
Let the earth hear His voice!

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
                  A
Let the people rejoice!
                             E7        A
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son,
    D            A
And give Him the glory,
             E7      A
Great things He hath done!


O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
To every believer the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.


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.
