Glory to Thee, O Lord (Beadon)

lyricist: Hyde Beadon, 1863
Composer: Benjamin Milgrove, 1769

Glory to Thee

O Lord

Who by Thy migh­ty pow­er

Didst ma­ni­fest Thy glo­ry forth

In Ca­na’s mar­riage hour.

Thou spak­est: it was done:

Obedient to Thy word

The water red­den­ing in­to wine

Proclaimed the pre­sent Lord.

Blest were the eyes which saw

That won­drous mys­te­ry

The great be­gin­ning of Thy works

That kin­dled faith in Thee.

And bless­èd they who know

Thine un­seen pre­sence true

When in the king­dom of Thy grace

Thou mak­est all things new.

For by Thy lov­ing hand

Thy peo­ple still are fed;

Thine is the cup of bless­ing

Lord

And Thou the heav’n­ly bread.

O may that grace be ours

Ever in Thee to live

And drink of those re­fresh­ing streams

Which Thou alone canst give.

So

led from strength to strength

Grant us

O Lord

to see

The mar­riage sup­per of the Lamb

Thy great epi­pha­ny.
