The Glory of Christ

The depths of life are apprehended

In the fellowship of suffering.

Made one with the cross we are mended

Though broken and spilled out we sing

For now in our pain there is ultimate gain

And our suffering is not a waste

It is a small price, for the glory of Christ

Fulfills every desire we have chased

The Glory of Christ is the pearl of great price

This is the anthem we sing

All grace from Him flows , all life from him grows

And is kept by our Savior and King

He brings purpose to our suffering

So rid yourselves of all that binds you

From the beautiful glory of Christ

Let this admonition remind you

Give your all and theres no sacrifice

For justice, meekness, truth, and grace

Attend His glorious way.

They overcome every loss we have faced

For the glory of Christ each day

The Glory of Christ is the pearl of great price

This is the anthem we sing

All grace from Him flows , all life from him grows

And is kept by our Savior and King

He brings purpose to our suffering

Now lifted up He was first brought low

Like a grain of wheat yielding much gain

So we who in our weakness can know

Sufficient grace still attains

When we forsake all to cling and draw near

And in Him be satisfied

As we bear our cross it is made clear

The King of Kings is glorified

The Glory of Christ is the pearl of great price

This is the anthem we sing

All grace from Him flows, all life from Him grows

And is kept by our Savior and King

He brings purpose to our suffering

So our Savior has gone before us

And so he leads Gods many sons

To glory with Him-He has conquered our sin

And our Judgment is over and done!

Dominions, thrones, and powers rejoice

To see him wear victorys crown.

Archangels sound his lofty praise

Every creature will one day bow down.

The Glory of Christ is the pearl of great price

This is the anthem we sing

All grace from Him flows, all life from him grows

And is kept by our Savior and King

He brings purpose to our suffering
