Glory be to GOD on high , &c. I. GLORY be to GOD on high , GOD whose Glory fills the Sky : Peace on Earth to Man forgiv'n , Man the Well-belov'd of Heav'n ! II . Sov'reign Father , Heav'nly King ! Thee we now presume to sing ; Glad Thine Attributes confess , Glorious all and numberless . III . Hail ! by all thy Works ador'd , Hail ! the everlasting Lord ! Thee with thankful Hearts we prove Lord of Pow'r , and GOD of Love . IV . CHRIST our LORD and GOD we own , CHRIST the Father's only Son ! Lamb of GOD for Sinners slain , Saviour of offending Man ! V. Bow thine Ear , in Mercy bow , Hear , the World's Attonement Thou ! JESU , in thy Name we pray , Take , O take our Sins away . VI . Pow'rful Advocate with GOD , Justify us by thy Blood ! Bow thine Ear , in Mercy bow , Hear , the World's Attonement Thou ! VII . Hear ; for Thou , O CHRIST alone With thy Glorious Sire art One ! One the Holy Ghost with Thee , One supreme Eternal Three .
