Glory All the Way

Representative Text

1 Saved by grace alone, God’s own Word believing—
It is glory all the way!
Walking in the light, daily grace receiving—
It is glory all the way!

Refrain:
Glory! Glory!
It is glory all the way!
Glory! Glory!
It is glory all the way!

2 Not a care have I since my Saviour careth—
It is glory all the way!
Guided by His eye, while with me He fareth—
It is glory all the way! [Refrain]

3 Severed from the world, His dear name confessing—
It is glory all the way!
Taking up the cross, sharing in the blessing—
It is glory all the way! [Refrain]

4 Sinner, put your trust in this loving Saviour—
It is glory all the way!
Freely He forgives all our past behavior—
It is glory all the way! [Refrain]

5 Working day by day, minded that He sees us—
It is glory all the way!
Watch and wait and pray, Looking unto Jesus—
It is glory all the way! [Refrain]
