Gloria Patri (Book III, Hymn 106)
From Olney Hymns, Book III (1779)
Religion
Glory to God, the FATHER'S name,
To Jesus, who for sinners died
The holy SPIRIT claims the same,
By whom our souls are sanctified.
Thy praise was sung when time began
By angels, through the starry spheres;
And shall, as now, be sung by man
Through vast eternity's long years.
