1 Glory be to God on high!
Heaven and earth resound with joy,
Joy, at news of pardoned sin;
Peace on earth, good-will to men.

2 Hail, by all thy saints adored!
Mighty, everlasting Lord!
Thee with thankful hearts we praise,
Jesus, full of truth and grace.

3 Christ, the Lamb of God, once slain,
Paid our debt, and bare our pain:
Christ the Saviour, we confess,
Is our peace, our righteousness.

4 Reconciled by him to God,
We proclaim his love aloud;
And with boldness drawing nigh--
"Father, Abba, Father!" cry.
