To God be the glory great things He has done,\nSo lov’d He the word that He gave us His Son;\nWho yielded his life an atonement for sin,\nAn opened the Life Gate that all may go in.\nPraise the Lord, praise the Lord,\nLet the earth hear his voice;\nPraise the Lord, praise the Lord,\nLet the people rejoice;\nOh, come to the Father, thro’ Jesus the Son,\nAnd give him the glory, great things He has done.\n46\n2. Oh perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,\nTo ev’ry believer the promise of God;\nThe vilest offender who truly believes,\nThat moment from Jesus a pardon receives\n3. Great things He has taught us great things he has done,\nAnd great our rejoicing thro’ Jesus the Son;\nBut purer and higher and greater will be\nOur wonder, our transport when Jesus we see.\nAdvent
