More and More the Weight of Glory

Verse 1

More and more the weight of glory, For our light afflictions here; Glory grand, supreme, eternal, If the cross for Christ we bear.

Chorus

More and more the weight of glory, More and more the love of God; More of music in the story, As we sing of Christ the Lord; More of music in the story, As we sing of Christ the Lord.

Verse 2

Lessons learned thro’ pain and sorrow, Break the ground for precious seed; Seed that buds and comes to blossom, Only in the hearts that bleed.

Verse 3

O’er the fields where once were battles, Now the fairest flow’rs are found; So the souls that here have conflicts, More and more in grace abound.

Verse 4

Looking on to things eternal, Let us daily die to sin; To the end, by grace enduring, We the glory grand, may win.
