Soli Deo Gloria
NewSong's 'Soli Deo Gloria' is a worship anthem celebrating that all glory belongs to God alone.

It declares that God alone is worthy of praise, regardless of how it is expressed. The repeated Latin phrase 'Soli Deo Gloria' means 'to God alone be the glory,' reinforcing the central theme of God's supreme worthiness. The song encourages listeners to lift their voices in exaltation, uniting with the global church in adoration.
You could hear them in the temple
The saints of long ago
Worshipping and praising the Lord
Though the language was not ours
It's still Him they adore
And He's the one that all the praise was for
Soli deo gloria
To God alone be the glory
For He alone is worthy of our praise
Soli deo gloria
No matter how you say it
To God alone be the glory always
The tongue of every nation
The Father understands
He needs no interpretation done
You see, the only thing that matters
Is the heart of the man
Not the words but the reason that it's sung
Soli deo gloria
To God alone be the glory
For He alone is worthy of our praise
Soli deo gloria
No matter how you say it
To God alone be the glory always
We lift our voices
He is exalted
Ooh, ooh, yes!
Soli deo gloria
To God alone be the glory
For He alone is worthy of our praise
Soli deo gloria
No matter how you say it
To God alone be the glory always
Soli deo gloria
To God alone be the glory
For He alone is worthy of our praise
(He is worthy of our praise)
Soli deo gloria
(Oh, gloria)
No matter how you say it
To God alone be the glory
To God alone be the glory
To God alone be the glory always
Soli deo gloria!
