ALL GLORY BE TO CHRIST
Lyrics
Verse 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
Chorus
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
Verse 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
Verse 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

Sample Introduction
Psalm 127 begins with the words “Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.” Boasting in our own efforts is futile because we’re here one day and gone the next. But we have a much greater hope to boast in, so lets declare together in the words of this song “all glory be to Christ!”
