126. Glory to God in the highest!

Glory to God in the highest!
    Glory to God, Glory to God,
Glory to God in the highest!
    Shall be our song to-day;
Another year's rich mercies prove
His ceaseless care and boundless love;
So let our loudest voices raise,
Our Anniversary song of praise.
    Glory to God in the highest
    Glory to God in the highest!
    Glory, glory, glory, glory,
    Glory be to God on high!
              God on high!

Glory to God in the highest!
    Shall be our song to-day;
The song that woke the glorious morn
When David's greater son was born,
Sung by an heavenly host, and we
Would join the angelic company.
    Glory to God in the highest, etc.

Glory to God in the highest!
Shall be our song to-day,
And while we with the angels sing;
Gifts with the wisemen let us bring
Unto the Babe of Bethlehem,
And offer our young hearts to him.
    Glory to God in the highest, etc.

Glory to God in the highest!
    Shall be our song to-day.
O, may we, an unbroken band,
Around the throne of Jesus stand,
And there with angels and the throng
Of his redeemed ones, join the song.
    Glory to God in the highest, etc.
