TEXT (by Chris Anderson)

Psalm 115:1
Not to us be glory, LORD;
Not to us praise or reward.
You alone be magnified;
Only Your name glorified.
For Your unrelenting love,
For Your faithfulness above,
Chorus:
Not to us, but to our King
Honor, praise, and glory bring!

Psalm 115:2-3
Why should heathen mock the Lord?
“Where is He?”—their scoffing word.
In the heav’ns He reigns alone,
Ruling from His lofty throne.
What He pleases He performs;
All to His design conforms.
Chorus:
Not to us, but to our King
Honor, praise, and glory bring!

Psalm 115:4-8
Foolish men in vain have prayed
To the idols they have made:
Wooden eye and molten ear—
Gods which neither see nor hear.
All who to such stones have fled
Shall be like them: dull and dead.
Chorus:
Not to us, but to our King
Honor, praise, and glory bring!

Psalm 115:9-18
Come, you saints and saints to come;
Trust in God, your Help and Home.
All who fear Him, He recalls;
He will bless us, great and small.
Praise Him! Praise your Shield and Lord
All through life, then evermore!
Chorus:
Not to us, but to our King
Honor, praise, and glory bring!

Ephesians 1:6, 12, 14; John 3:30
Christ has claimed a chosen race
For the glory of His grace.
Who but He can praises claim?
Who boasts such a matchless name?
We whose song will never cease
Long to fade and Christ increase!
Chorus:
Not to us, but to our King
Honor, praise, and glory bring!
