Christ the Word from everlasting
Life before all time began
God with God in perfect union
Father’s radiance in the Son.
All the glory
All the honour
Praise him for our God is one!
Christ , who made the heaven’s splendour
See his glory in the skies
Stars abound like scattered treasure
Call mankind to lift their eyes
All the glory
All the honour
Praise him for our God is wise!
See his wonders all around us
Works of art that bear his name
All creation answers to him
Christ declares “This world is mine!”
All the glory
All the honour
Praise him for his rich design!
Christ will bring his new creation
We will see that glorious morn
Wait in eager expectation
Night gives way to endless dawn
All the glory
All the honour
Be to Christ forevermore!
