"Glory to God on high!
Peace upon earth and joy,
Good will to man."
We who God's blessing prove
His name all names above,
Sing now the Saviour's love,
Too vast to scan.
Mercy and truth unite,
Oh! 'tis a wondrous sight,
All sights above!
Jesus the curse sustains!
Guilt's bitter cup He drains!
Nothing for us remains—
Nothing but love.
Love that no tongue can teach,
Love that no thought can reach,
No love like His.
God is its blessèd source,
Death ne'er can stop its course,
Nothing can stay its force;
Matchless it is.
Blest in this love, we sing;
To God our praises bring;
All sins forgiven.
Jesus, our Lord, to Thee
Honor and majesty,
Now and forever be,
Here and in heaven.
