Let the glory of the Lord forever be a joy
May redemption be the theme of our song

For by grace we have been saved
And by grace we shall proclaim
To the corners of the earth that Christ has come

Let the nations be glad, let the people rejoice
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the whole earth be filled with the praises of the Lord
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the nations be glad

Through the ages gone before
Through the trial and the sword
Many saints and martyrs conquered though they died

Still we're holding out the cross
Crossing ocean suffering loss
Shall endure all things to win the crown of life

Let the nations be glad, let the people rejoice
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the whole earth be filled with the praises of the Lord
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the nations be glad

Let the nations be glad

As your holy church goes forth, in the Holy Spirit’s power
With the glories of the Gospel to explain

Now we pray Your kingdom come
And we pray Your will be done
For the honor and the glory of Your name

Let the nations be glad, let the people rejoice
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the whole earth be filled with the praises of the Lord
For salvation belongs to our God
Let the nations be glad

Let the nations be glad
Let the nations be glad
