Glory be to Jesus
Lyrics
- Glory be to Jesus,
Who in bitter pains
Poured for me the lifeblood
From His sacred veins! - Grace and life eternal
In that blood I find;
Blest be His compassion,
Infinitely kind! - Blest through endless ages
Be the precious stream
Which from endless torments
Doth the world redeem! - Abelâs blood for vengeance
Pleaded to the skies;
But the blood of Jesus
For our pardon cries. - Oft as earth exulting
Wafts its praise on high,
Angel hosts rejoicing,
Make their glad reply. - Lift we, then, our voices,
Swell the mighty flood;
Louder still and louder
Praise the precious blood!
