P. M.
To him be glory.
Rejoice, O earth! the Lord is King!
To him your humble tribute bring;
Let Jacob rise, and Zion sing,
And all the world with praises ring,
And give to Jesus glory!
2 O may the saints of every name
Unite to serve the bleeding Lamb!
May jars and discords cease to flame,
And all the Saviour’s love proclaim,
And give to Jesus glory!
3 We long to see the Christians join
In union sweet and love divine,
And glory through the churches shine,
And Gentiles crowding to the sign,
To give to Jesus glory!
4 O may the distant lands rejoice,
And sinners hear the Bridegroom’s voice,
While praise their happy tongues employs,
And all obtain immortal joys,
And give to Jesus glory!
5 Then tears shall all be wiped away,
And Christians never go astray;
When we are freed from cumbrous clay,
We’ll praise the Lord in endless day,
And give to Jesus glory.
