To God Be the Glory
Author: Fanny J. Crosby Meter: 11.11.11.11 with refrain Appears in 222 hymnals First Line: To God be the glory, Great things He hath done Scripture: Galatians 1:4-5 Refrain First Line: Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the earth hear His voice! Lyrics: 1. To God be the glory, great things He hath done;
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son.
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the lifegate that all may go in.
Refrain:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father thro' Jesus the Son,
and give Him the glory, great things He hath done.
2. O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
To ev'ry believer the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives. [Refrain]
3. Great things He hath taught us, great things He hath done,
And great our rejoicing thro' Jesus the Son;
But purer, and higher, and greater will be
Our wonder, our vict'ry, when Jesus we see. [Refrain]

We believe in God the Father
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 1 Lyrics: 1 We believe in God the Father,
God almighty, by whose plan
earth and heaven sprang to being,
all created things began.
We believe in Christ the Saviour,
Son of God in human frame,
virgin-born, the child of Mary
upon whom the Spirit came.
2 Christ, who on the cross forsaken,
like a lamb to slaughter led,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
he descended to the dead.
We believe in Jesus risen,
heaven's King to rule and reign,
to the Father's side ascended
till as judge he comes again.
3 We believe in God the Spirit;
in one Church, below, above:
saints of God in one communion,
one in holiness and love.
So by faith, our sins forgiven,
Christ our Saviour, Lord and friend,
we shall rise with him in glory
to the life that knows no end.

We sing the glorious conquest
Author: John Ellerton, 1826-1893 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 28 hymnals Scripture: Galatians 1:23-24 Lyrics: 1 We sing the glorious conquest
before Damascus gate,
when Saul, the church's spoiler,
came breathing threats and hate;
the ravening wolf rushed forward
full early to the prey;
but lo, the Shepherd met him,
and bound him fast to-day.
*2 O glory most excelling
that smote across his path,
O light that pierced and blinded
the zealot in his wrath,
O voice that spake within him
the calm reproving word,
O love that sought and held him
the bondman of his Lord!
3 O wisdom, ordering all things
in order strong and sweet,
what nobler spoil was ever
cast at the Victor's feet?
What wiser master-builder
e'er wrought at thine employ
than he, till now so furious
your building to destroy?
4 Lord, teach thy church the lesson,
still in her darkest hour
of weakness and of danger
to trust thy hidden power:
thy grace by ways mysterious
the wrath of man can bind,
and in thy boldest foeman
thy chosen saint can find. Topics: Saints St. Paul Used With Tune: ELLACOMBE

When God our Father's pleas'd
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Galatians 1:15-16 Lyrics: 1 When God our Father's pleas'd
For to reveal his Son,
Immediately our Conscience eas'd
Becomes his peaceful Throne.
2 Consult we then no more
Our Senses, Flesh and Blood,
But in the day of heav'nly Pow'r
commence the sons of God.
3 Included all in One,
We now with Rapture tell,
We're in the Father's only son,
In whom he's pleased well:
4 This doth our God make known
To mortal Worms below:
All other Matters we disown,
This only will we know.
5 We leave this World behind,
With all its Faith and Forms,
And live in the eternal Mind,
Free from all Hell's Alarms.
6 What Sense suggests we leave,
With Reason's doubtful Plan,
And in the spirit's Power cleave
To Christ, the perfect Man.
