Glory to the King

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)

The Lord doesn’t want your money;
The Lord doesn’t want your things.
The Lord wants only you
And the Lord wants you to sing.

Sing praise to the Lord
Sing praise and honor and glory.
CHORUS 2X

The Lord doesn’t care about the music;
The Lord doesn’t care about the art.
The Lord doesn’t listen to your voices;
But the Lord listens to your heart.

Sing praise to the Lord
Sing praise and honor and glory.
CHORUS 2X

The Lord Jesus Christ is glory.
The Lord Jesus Christ is king.
The Lord Jesus Christ is honor.
The Lord Jesus is everything.

Sing praise to the Lord
Sing praise and honor and glory.
CHORUS 2X
