291. Glory, Glory Everlasting

8.7.
by T. Kelly
1
Glory, glory everlasting
 
Be to Him who bore the cross,
 
Who redeemed our souls by tasting
 
Death, the death deserved by us;
 
Spread His glory, spread His glory,
 
Who redeemed His people thus.
2
His is love: ’tis love unbounded,
 
Without measure, without end;
 
Human thought is here confounded:
 
’Tis too vast to comprehend!
 
Praise the Savior! Praise the Savior!
 
Magnify the sinner’s Friend!
3
While we tell the wondrous story
 
Of the Savior’s cross and shame,
 
Sing we, "Everlasting glory
 
Be to God and to the Lamb!"
 
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
 
Give ye glory to His name!
