181. Glory, Lord, is Thine for ever

1 Glory, Lord, is Thine for ever,
Ever Thine--Thou art the Son!
Great the glory Thou art given,
Great the glory Thou hast won;
Great the glory and the splendour
Of the holy heav'nly place;
Greater far the God-head glory
Shining, Saviour, in Thy face!

2 Lord of glory, Thou didst enter
This dark world of sin and woe;
Veiled Thy glory, yet 'twas witnessed
By Thine own whle here below.
Thou didst die, and now we praise Thee
In Thy glory, Lord, above;
For in death Thou hast declared
All the fulness of God's love.

3 Yes, we see Thee crowned with glory,
Highest honour to Thee giv'n;
But the glory of Thy person
Is the light that shines in heav'n.
Thou art greater, glorious Saviour,
Than the glory Thou hast won;
This the greatness of Thy glory--
Ever blest--Thou art the Son!
