Not To Us O Lord -To Your Name Be Glory

NOT TO US, O LORD
But to Your name be glory.
Not to us be praise,
But Your great name we raise.
High above, lifted up,
You deserve the place of honour.
Holy One, glorious Christ,
You deserve our hearts’ devotion.

Not to us, O Lord,
But to Your name be glory.
Not to us be praise,
But Your great name we raise.
Christ the King, heaven’s Lamb,
Jesus, You alone are worthy
To receive the offering
Of forgiven hearts in worship.

Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Who like we His praise should sing?
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Praise the everlasting King,
Praise the everlasting King.
