Glory

Famous quotes containing the word glory:

“Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, they have their reward. But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth.”

On which the Prince of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.”

All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around.”
