1 Not to us, Lord, not to us

but to your name be the glory,

because of your love and faithfulness.

2 Why do the nations say,

“Where is their God?”

3 Our God is in heaven;

he does whatever pleases him.

1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory,

for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness!

2 Why should the nations say,

“Where is their God?”

3 Our God is in the heavens;

he does all that he pleases.

1 Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us,

But unto thy name give glory,

For thy mercy, and for thy truth’s sake.

2 Wherefore should the heathen say,

Where is now their God?

3 But our God is in the heavens:

He hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.

1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us,

but to your name goes all the glory

for your unfailing love and faithfulness.

2 Why let the nations say,

“Where is their God?”

3 Our God is in the heavens,

and he does as he wishes.

1 Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us,

But to Your name give glory,

Because of Your mercy,

Because of Your truth.

2 Why should the Gentiles say,

“So where is their God?”

3 But our God is in heaven;

He does whatever He pleases.

1 It does not belong to us, Lord.

The glory belongs to you

because of your love and loyalty.

2 Why do the nations ask,

“Where is their God?”

3 Our God is in heaven.

He does what he pleases.

1 Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us,

But unto thy name give glory,

For thy lovingkindness, and for thy truth’s sake.

2 Wherefore should the nations say,

Where is now their God?

3 But our God is in the heavens:

He hath done whatsoever he pleased.

1 Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth’s sake. 2 Wherefore should the nations say, Where then is their God? 3 But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he pleased.

1 Don’t give glory to us, O Lord. 

Don’t give glory to us. 

Instead, give glory to your name 

because of your mercy and faithfulness. 

2 Why should other nations say, “Where is their God?” 

3 Our God is in heaven. 

He does whatever he wants. 

1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory,

for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness.

“Where is their God?”

3 Our God is in the heavens;

he does whatever he pleases.

1 Not to us, O Yahweh, not to us,

but to your name give glory,

because of your loyal love,

because of your faithfulness.

2 Why should the nations say,

“Where, pray tell, is their God?”

3 But our God is in the heavens;

all that he desires, he does.

1 Lord, may glory be given to you, not to us.

You are loving and faithful.

2 Why do the nations ask,

“Where is their God?”

3 Our God is in heaven.

He does anything he wants to do.

1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us,

But to Your name give glory

Because of Your lovingkindness, because of Your truth.

“Where, now, is their God?”

He does whatever He pleases.
