To God be the glory, a Saviour is mine

Author: Charles Coller (1863-1935) Hymnal: The Song Book of the Salvation Army #640 (1986) Lyrics: 1 To God be the glory, a Saviour is mine, Whose power is almighty, whose grace is divine; My heart he hath cleansed, he is dwelling within, So wondrously saving from sinning and sin. 2 O wonder of wonders, to God be the praise, I joy in his will, I delight in his ways! And through every conflict, without and within, He saves me and keeps me from sinning and sin. 3 No longer in bondage, my freedom I’ll use My Master to serve in the way he shall choose; To work or to witness, to go or remain, His smile of approval my infinite gain. 4 Earth’s pleasures and treasures no longer allure, My spirit aspires to the things which endure; To walk with my Saviour in garments of white, My highest ambition, my constant delight. 5 The world overcoming by limitless grace, I worship the Lord in the light of his face; So with him communing, like him I shall grow, And life everlasting enjoy here below.
