How Much More Glory

w/m Bill and Karen Itzel 3/93

Engraved upon the stone – the Lord’s commandments
An instrument of death for all to heed
And through these words of God – there came a bondage
For none could keep the law and none were free

Yet when Moses brought these tablets from the mountain
His countenance so bright they turned away
For the law of Jehovah came with glory
But a glory that would soon begin to fade

Chorus
How much more glory
Has the Son of God – the instrument of life
So much glory all creation bows in praise
And now the veil is gone
Where there was bondage – now there’s liberty
All the glory to our awesome God we raise

A sacrificial lamb was always offered
But a covering was all it could provide
For there to be a hope of final pardon
There had to be a spotless lamb to die

But from ages past a plan was set in motion
It provided such a lamb to cleanse our sin
The Lamb was the Son of God named Jesus
Who died and then in Glory rose again
