Songs of Glory is a studio album by bluegrass artists Flatt and Scruggs with the Foggy Mountain Boys. It was released in 1960 by Columbia Records, catalog numbers CL 1424 (mono) and CS 8221 (stereo).[1][2]

The album was released before Billboard magazine began maintaining its Top Country Albums chart in 1964. It was part of Louise Scruggs' plan to give the group a facelift by adding older folk songs to their repertoire.[3]
