This week is a very busy one for me, so I am posting a hymn from Hope Chapel’s recording of hymns, released earlier this year. It’s called What Spoils From Death He Won, and you can get the six-song project from amazon.com or iTunes, or from Hope Chapel’s website.
The music was written by Ryan Bowles, Charlie Swing, Todd Van Patter and me. Musician credits are: Patrick Collins, drums; Dana Northrup, BGVs; Polly Howell, violin; Michael Van Patter, guitar, bass, banjo, vocals.

To Him That Chose Us First (Isaac Watts, 1707)
To him that chose us first, before the world began;
To him that bore the curse to save rebellious man;
To him that formed our hearts anew
Is endless praise and glory due.
Glory to God, hallelujah! Glory to God, hallelujah!
Glory to God, hallelujah!
Let every saint above, and angel round the throne,
Forever bless and love the sacred Three in One;
All heav’n shall raise His honors high,
When earth and time grow old and die.
Glory to God, hallelujah! Glory to God, hallelujah!
Glory to God, hallelujah!
The Father’s love shall run through our immortal songs;
We bring to God the Son, “Hosannas”, on our tongues:
Glory to God, hallelujah! Glory to God, hallelujah!
Glory to God, hallelujah!
