Glory Be to God Forever

Representative Text

1 I can sing the glad new an­them
With the ran­somed host ab­ove;
With the saved I now am shar­ing
In the gifts of won­drous love.

Refrain:
"Glory be to God for­ev­er,"
I can join the glad re­frain;
I am num­bered with the ran­somed,
"Glory be to God again."

2 I can sing the glad new an­them,
I was bound, but now I’m free;
By His blood on Cal­va­ry flow­ing
Christ the Lord hath ran­somed me. [Refrain]

3 I can sing the glad new an­them,
I was blind, but now I see;
Since I’ve turned mine eyes on Je­sus
Light hath sweet­ly dawned on me. [Refrain]

4 Can my lips be mute then long­er,
When such gifts as these are mine?
When the Sav­ior says, so sweet­ly,
"All I have is free­ly thine." [Refrain]
