Let the Nations Be Glad (Live / Sing! 2019 Edition)

[Verse 1]
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 is come

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 oceans, suffering loss
Shall endure all things to win the crown of life

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
As your holy church goes forth, in the Holy Spirit’s power
With the glories of the Gospel to explain (now we pray)
Now we pray Your kingdom come
And we pray Your will be done
For the honor and the glory of Your name (Your name!)

[Chorus]
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
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

[Outro]
Let the nations be glad
