We are never, never weary
of the grand old song;
Glory to God, hallelujah!
We can sing it loud as ever,
with our faith more strong;
Glory to God, hallelujah!
O, the children of the Lord
have a right to shout and sing,
For the way is growing bright,
and our souls are on the wing;
We are going by and by
to the palace of a King!
Glory to God, hallelujah!
We are lost amid the rapture
of redeeming love
Glory to God, hallelujah!
We are rising on its pinions
to the hills above:
Glory to God, hallelujah!
O, the children of the Lord
have a right to shout and sing,
For the way is growing bright,
and our souls are on the wing;
We are going by and by
to the palace of a King!
Glory to God, hallelujah!
We are going to a palace
that is built of gold;
Glory to God, hallelujah!
Where the King in all His splendor
we shall soon behold
Glory to God, hallelujah!
O, the children of the Lord
have a right to shout and sing,
For the way is growing bright,
and our souls are on the wing;
We are going by and by
to the palace of a King!
Glory to God, hallelujah!
There we’ll shout redeeming mercy
in a glad, new song;
Glory to God, hallelujah!
There we’ll sing the praise of Jesus
with the blood washed throng;
Glory to God, hallelujah!
O, the children of the Lord
have a right to shout and sing,
For the way is growing bright,
and our souls are on the wing;
We are going by and by
to the palace of a King!
Glory to God, hallelujah!
