When the glory of the Lord
Fills this holy temple
He will lift us high
And on angels' wings we'll rise
To the pure and holy
When His spirit fills this place
When His glory
When His glory
When His glory fills this place
When His glory
When His glory
When His glory fills this place
[LEAD:]
Let the glory of the Lord
Fill this holy temple
Let Him lift us high
And on angels' wings we'll rise
To the pure and holy
Let His spirit fill this place
Let Thy glory
Let Thy glory
Let Thy glory fill this place
Let Thy glory
Let Thy glory
Let Thy glory fill this place
Let Thy glory fill this place
