1 Come, let our voices join
In one glad song of praise:
To God, the God of love,
Our grateful hearts we raise.
Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory;
God is love,
Glory, glory, glory, Hallelujah!
God is love.

2 Now we are taught to read
The Book of life divine,
Where our Redeemer's love
And brightest glories shine.
Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory;
God is love,
Glory, glory, glory, Hallelujah!
God is love.

3 Within these hallow'd walls
Our wand'ring feet are brought,
Where prayer and praise ascend,
And heavenly truths are taught.
Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory;
God is love,
Glory, glory, glory, Hallelujah!
God is love.

4 For blessings such as these,
Our gratitude receive:
Lord, here accept our hearts--
'Tis all that we can give.
Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory;
God is love,
Glory, glory, glory, Hallelujah!
God is love.
