“Glory to God on high!”


 
A hymn written by Augustus Toplady and J. Allen

(1)

Glory to God on High!
    Let heaven and earth reply,
    “Praise ye His name!”
His love and grace adore
Who all our sorrows bore;
And sing for evermore,
    “Worthy the Lamb!”

(2)

All they around the throne
Cheerfully join in one,
    Praising His name;
We, who have felt His blood
Sealing our peace with God,
Sound His dear name abroad,
    “Worthy the Lamb!”

(3)

Join, all ye ransomed race,
Our Lord and God to bless –
    Praise ye his name:
In Him we will rejoice,
And make a joyful noise,
Shouting with heart and voice,
    “Worthy the Lamb!”

(4)

What though we change our place,
Yet we shall never cease
    Praising His name!
To Him our songs we bring,
Hail Him our gracious King;
And without ceasing sing,
    “Worthy the Lamb!”

(5)

Then let the hosts above,
In realms of endless love,
    Praise His dear name:
To Him ascribed be
Honour and majesty,
Through all eternity,
    “Worthy the Lamb!”
