Lyrics

Do Dhia biodh a’ ghlòir thaobh na mìorbhail a chleachd! Bha ghaol dhuinn cho mòr ‘s nach do dhaomhainn E Mhac, A dh’ishlich a bhetha mar èirig ar saors’ ‘S a dh’fhosgail an doras a threòraich gu thaobh. Molaibh Dia, lomaibh Dia, is gun cluinneadh an saogh’l; Molaibh Dia, molaibh Dia, dèanaibh iolach, a dhaoin’; O thig chun an Athar tre Ìosa a Mhac, Is thoir Dha a’ ghlòir ‘son na mìorbhail a chleachd. Cia coileant’ an t-slàinte a cheannaich an fhuil! Don chreidmheach bho Dhia tha n gealladh gu tur: An reubalt as brèine a chreideas le chrìdh’ Sa mhòmaid gheibh maitheanas Chrìosda an Rìgh. Molaibh Dia, lomaibh Dia, is gun cluinneadh an saogh’l; Molaibh Dia, molaibh Dia, dèanaibh iolach, a dhaoin’; O thig chun an Athar tre Ìosa a Mhac, Is thoir Dha a’ ghlòir ‘son na mìorbhail a chleachd. Is mòr rinn sinn fhoghlam, is mòr na rinn E, Agus mòr ar co-chomann rì Ìosa air Nèamh; Ach mòran nas àirde, is fiorghlan, gun tèid Ar n-iongnadh ‘s ar n-aoibhneas nuair chì sinn E Fhèin. Molaibh Dia, lomaibh Dia, is gun cluinneadh an saogh’l; Molaibh Dia, molaibh Dia, dèanaibh iolach, a dhaoin’; O thig chun an Athar tre Ìosa a Mhac, Is thoir Dha a’ ghlòir ‘son na mìorbhail a chleachd. E. leis an Urr. Ruairidh MacDhòmhnaill To God be the Glory! (Mission Praise 708)

Lyrics Translated

To God be the glory, Great things He has done So loved He the world that He gave us His Son Who yielded His life an atonement for sin And opened the life-gate that all may go in Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the earth hear His voice Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the people rejoice Come to the Father through Jesus the Son Give Him the glory great things He has done O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood To every believer the promise of God The vilest offender who truly believes That moment from Jesus a pardon receives Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear His voice Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice Come to the Father through Jesus the Son, Give Him the glory great things He has done Great things He has taught us, great things He has done And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son But purer, and higher, and greater will be Our wonder, our worship, when Jesus we see Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear His voice Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice Come to the Father through Jesus the Son, Give Him the glory great things He has done
