To God Be Glory

lyricist: Tate and Brady, 1702
Composer: William Statham (1832–1898)

To God be glo­ry

peace on earth

To all man­kind

good­will;

We bless

we praise

we wor­ship Thee

And glo­ri­fy Thee still.

And thanks for Thy great glo­ry give

That fills our souls with light;

Our Lord

our heav­en­ly king

the God

And Fa­ther of all might.

And Thou be­got­ten Son of God

Before all time be­gun;

Thou Lord and God

Thou Lamb of God

The Fa­ther’s on­ly Son.

Have mer­cy

Thou that tak’st the sins

Of man­kind all away:

Have mer­cy

Sav­ior of man­kind

And hear us when we pray.

O Thou

who sitt’st at God’s right hand

Upon the Fa­ther’s throne;

Have mer­cy on us

Thou

O Christ

The ev­er­last­ing Son.

Thou

Lord

who

with the Ho­ly Ghost

Whom Heav­en and earth adore

In glo­ry of the Fa­ther

art

Most high for­ev­er more.
