GLORY be to God on high, God, whose By A Collection of Hymns
7s. "Glory be to God on high" &c. (Communion Service.) 1 GLORY be to God on high, God whose glory fills the skies; Peace on earth to man forgiven, Man, the well-beloved of heaven. 2 Sovereign Father, heavenly King, Thee we now presume to sing; Glad, thine attributes confess, Glorious all, and numberless. 3 Hail, by all thy works adored! Hail, the everlasting Lord! Thee with thankful hearts we prove God of power, and God of love. 4 Christ our Lord and God we own, Christ, the Father's only Son, Lamb of God for sinners slain, Saviour of offending man. 5 Bow thine ear, in mercy bow, Hear, the world's atonement, thou! Jesus, in thy name we pray, Take, O take our sins away! 6 Powerful advocate with God, Justify us by thy blood; Bow thine ear, in mercy bow, Hear, the world's atonement, thou! 7 Hear, for thou, O Christ, alone Art with God the Father one, One the Holy Ghost with thee, One supreme, eternal THREE.
