Let the glory of the Lord
Forever be our joy
May redemption be the theme of our song
For by grace we have been saved
And by grace we shall proclaim
To the corners of the earth that Christ is come
Refrain:
Let the nations be glad
Let the people rejoice
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the whole earth be filled
With the praises of the Lord
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the nations be glad!
Through the ages gone before
Through the trial and the sword
Many saints and martyrs conquered though they died
Still we're holding out the cross
Crossing oceans, suffering loss
Shall endure all things to win the crown of life
As Your holy church goes forth
In the Holy Spirit's pow'r
With the glories of the gospel to exclaim (now we pray)
Now we pray, "Your Kingdom come"
And we pray, "Your will be done"
For the honor and the glory of Your name
