1. Should nothing of our efforts stand, no legacy survive;
Unless the Lord does raise the house, in vain its builders strive.
To you who boast tomorrow’s gain, tell me what is your life?
A mist that vanishes at dawn, all glory be to Christ!
Refrain:
All glory be to Christ, our King, all glory be to Christ!
His rule and reign we’ll ever sing, all glory be to Christ!
2. His will be done, His kingdom come, on earth as is above;
Who is Himself our daily bread, praise Him the Lord of love.
Let living water satisfy the thirsty without price;
We’ll take a cup of kindness yet, all glory be to Christ!
3. When on the day the great I Am, the Faithful and the True;
The Lamb who was for sinners slain, is making all things new.
Behold our God shall live with us and be our steadfast light,
And we shall e’er His people be, all glory be to Christ!

My Song Is Love Unknown (Hymn 202)
1. My song is love unknown,
My Savior’s love to me;
Love to the loveless shown,
That they might lovely be.
Oh, who am I, that for my sake
My Lord should take frail flesh and die?2. He came from His blest throne
Salvation to bestow;
But men made strange, and none
The longed-for Christ would kn... -
Here Is Love (hymn 185)
1. Here is love, vast as the ocean,
Lovingkindness as the flood,
When the Prince of Life, our Ransom,
Shed for us His precious blood.
Who His love will not remember?
Who can cease to sing His praise?
He can never be forgotten,
Throughout heav’n’s eternal days.2. On the mount of crucifixion,
