lyrics

Verse 1:
O God, my joy, You reign above 
In radiant splendor and beauty. 
Your Word has drawn my heart to love 
The awesome sight of Your glory. 
Your blazing light and gospel grace 
Shine brightly from my Savior’s face. 
No other wonder would I see 
Than Christ enthroned in His glory!

Verse 2:
Sustained by joy in trial and pain, 
I trust Your wisdom and mercy. 
Through suff’ring that Your love ordains, 
More like Your Son You will make me. 
For Christ embraced the cross of shame, 
Beholding glorious joys to come. 
O give me faith like His to see 
That suff’ring lifts me to glory!

Bridge:
All my life, all my love, all my joy,
All for your glory!
All my heart, all my soul, all my mind,
All for your glory!
All my strength, all my days, all my praise,
All for your glory!

Verse 3:
Compelled by joy, I fight the sin 
That turns my gaze from Your glory. 
Your Holy Spirit dwells within; 
His presence arms me for vict’ry. 
Let death and hell against me rise; 
Through death I’ll gain eternal joys. 
All pow’rs of hell will bend the knee 
Before my great King of Glory!

Tag:
Let death and hell against me rise; 
Through death I’ll gain eternal joys. 
All pow’rs of hell will bend the knee 
Before my great King of Glory!

Outro vocals:
All my life, all my love, all my joy,
All for your glory!
