To God be the glory, great things He hath done; So loved He the world that He gave His Son, Who yielded His life an atonement for sin, And opened the life gate that all may go in. REFRAIN: Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the earth hear His voice! Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let people rejoice! O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son, And give Him the glory, great things He hath done. 2. 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. REFRAIN 3. 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 go with me, I still will follow, no turning back, no turning back.
