¶Lyrics / Text

''George Whitefield, 1758'' Meet and right it is to sing Glory to our God and King; Meet in every time and place, To rehearse his solemn praise. Join, ye saints, the song around, Angels help the cheerful sounds Publish through the world abroad Glory to the eternal God. Praises here to thee we give, Gracious thou our thanks receive; Holy Father, sovereign Lord, Every where be thou adored. Though the injurious world exclaim, Sing we still in Jesus' name; Savior, thee we ever bless, Thee our Lord and God confess.
