Mawutɔe nye bubu; nu gãwoe wòwɔ Elɔ̃ xexeame be wòtsɔ via na mi. Ekɔ ef'a-gbe ɖi ɖe mia vɔ̃wo ta. Eʋu agbe gbo la, be miage ɖe'me.
English
To God be the glory, great things He hath done; So loved He the world that He gave us His Son, Who yielded His life an atonement for sin, And opened the life gate that all may go in.
Xɔɖedzi / Chorus
Eʋegbe
Kafui ɖaa, kafui ɖaa, Xexea nase 'ƒe gbe Kafui ɖaa, kafui ɖaa, Na mewo nadzɔ dzi O va Fofo la gbɔ to Via Yesu dzi. Mitsɔ ŋutikɔkɔe nɛ nu gawoe wò wɔ
English
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the earth hear His voice; Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the people rejoice; O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son, And give Him the glory, great things He hath done.
Verse 2
Eʋegbe
O ɖeɖe kɔkɔe si ɖemi kple ʋu la. Siŋugbe wodo na mi xɔsetɔwo Na nu vɔ̃wɔla gãtɔ si xɔe se la, Kpɔa tsɔtsɔ ke tso Yesu mia Ðela gbɔ
English
O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood, To every believer the promise of God; The vilest offender who truly believes, That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.
Verse 3
Eʋegbe
Nu gãwoe wòfia mi, nu gãwoe wòwɔ. Mia dzidzɔ la lolo to via Yesu me Ke kɔkɔe kple gãnyenye wòanye na mi Awɔ nuku na mi ne miekpɔ Yesu.
English
Great things He hath taught us, great things He hath done, And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son; But purer, and higher, and greater will be Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.
