Verse 1

Let the glory of the Lord
Forever be our joy
May redemption be the theme of our song
For by grace we have been saved
And by grace we shall proclaim
To the corners of the Earth
That Christ is come

Chorus

Let the nations be glad
Let the people rejoice
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the whole Earth be filled
With the praises of the Lord
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the nations be glad

Verse 2

Through the ages gone before
Through the trial and the sword
Many saints and martyrs conquered
Though they died
Still we holding out the cross
Crossing oceans suffering loss
Shall endure all things
To win the crown of life

Chorus

Let the nations be glad
Let the people rejoice
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the whole Earth be filled
With the praises of the Lord
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the nations be glad

Verse 3

As Your holy Church goes forth
In the Holy Spirit’s power
With the glories of the gospel to exclaim
Now we pray Your Kingdom come
And we pray Your will be done
For the honor
And the glory of Your name

Chorus

Let the nations be glad
Let the people rejoice
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the whole Earth be filled
With the praises of the Lord
For salvation belongs to our God

Chorus

Let the nations be glad
Let the people rejoice
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the whole Earth be filled
With the praises of the Lord
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the nations be glad
