1 Should nothing of our efforts stand,
no legacy survive,
Unless the Lord does raise the house,
in vain its builders strive.
To you who boast tomorrow's gain,
tell me what is your life?
A mist that vanishes at dawn,
Refrain
All glory be to Christ, our King.
All glory be to Christ!
His rule and reign we'll ever sing,
all glory be to Christ!
2 His will be done, His kingdom come,
on earth as is above,
Who is Himself our daily bread,
praise Him the Lord of love.
Let living water satisfy
the thirsty without price.
We'll take a cup of kindness yet,
all glory be to Christ! Refrain
3 When on the day the great I Am,
the Faithful and the True,
The Lamb who was for sinners slain,
is making all things new.
Behold our God shall live with us
and be our steadfast light.
And we shall e'er His people be,
all glory be to Christ! Refrain
