We Will Chant in Psalms of Glory

lyricist: Henry Perkins, 1875
Composer: J. E. Rohrbaugh

We will chant in psalms of glo­ry

We will sing in hymns of praise;

We will tell the dear old sto­ry—

Up to Heav’n our voices raise—

Singing of a Fa­ther’s mer­cies

Of our mas­ter’s per­fect love;

How He came to earth and bless­ed us

Then re­turned to Heav’n above.

Glory

glo­ry be to the Fa­ther

Praise and hon­or to the Son;

We will chant in loud­est ho­san­nas

For the vict’ry He has won.

We will chant in psalms of glad­ness

We will sing both loud and long

Of the earth so full of beau­ty;

We will join in sweet­est song

Of the spring­time and the sum­mer

Of the mount­ain

hill and plain—

To the great and glo­ri­ous Giv­er;

Praise and hon­or to His name.

We will chant our sweet­est music

We will sing in tune­ful lay

Of the homes we love and cher­ish;

Up to Heav’n we’ll of­fer praise—

Yes

we’ll thank our heav’n­ly Fa­ther

For the love which He doth give;

And we’ll seek to own His fa­vor

By the lives which we may live.
