Thomas Kelly

Glory, glory everlasting
Be to Him who bore the cross,
Who redeemed our souls by tasting
Death, the death deserved by us!
...

Grace is the sweetest sound
That ever reached our ears;
When conscience charged and justice frowned,
'Twas grace removed our fears.
...

In the Lord we have redemption,
Full remission in His blood,
From the curse entire exemption,
From the curse pronounced by God:
...

In thy courts, O Lord, assembling,
We thy people now draw near:
Teach us to rejoice with trembling;
Speak, and let thy servants hear;
...

Stricken, smitten, and afflicted,
See Him dying on the tree!
’Tis the Christ by man rejected;
Yes, my soul, ’tis He, ’tis He!
...

The atoning work is done,
The Victim's blood is shed;
And Jesus now is gone
His people's cause to plead:
...

The night is far spent, and the day is at hand:
No sign to be looked for; the Star's in the sky;
...

We sing the praise of Him who died,
Of Him who died upon the cross,
The sinner's Hope -- let men deride;
For this we count the world but loss.
...

We'll sing of the Shepherd that died
That died for the sake of the flock;
His love to the utmost was tried,
But firmly endured as a rock.
...

Awake each soul! awake each tongue!
The subject is divine;
The Saviour's love demands our song;
Let all His people join.
...

Behold the Lamb with glory crowned,
To Him all power be given;
No place too high for Him is found,
No place too high in heaven.
...

Glory to God on high,
Peace upon earth and joy,
Goodwill to man!
We who God's blessing prove,
...
