WEH163

1 Glory be to God on high,
God whose glory fills the sky:
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
Lord 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!
Jesu, 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
With Thy glorious Sire art One!
ONe the Holy Ghost with Thee,
One supreme Eternal Three.
