Glory to God, whose grace and power
Have saved a countless host;
In who compassion triumphs more
Than justice in the lost.
Glory to him who humbly came
To dwell with us below:
Our sin to bear, remove our shame,
And save from endless woe.
Glory to him who leads the soul
To penitence and prayer;
Makes faith our unbelief control,
And hope o’ercome despair.
Glory to God from every tongue,
Which here can lisp his love;
And higher glory from the throng
Of all the blessed above.
Angels and saints, through earth and heaven,
Let your sweet anthems swell;
Ye saints whose fall has been forgiven,
And ye who never fell.
