Father 'twas Thy love that knew us,
Earth's foundation
long before;
That same love to Jesus drew us,
By its sweet
constraining pow'r,
And will keep us, And will keep us,
safely now, and evermore.
And will keep us, And will keep us,
safely now, and evermore.
Now that changeless love enfolds us,
All its wealth on us
bestows,
While its pow'r unchanging holds us
In a holy calm
repose.
God and Father, God and Father
Unto Thee our worship flows,
God and Father, God and Father
Unto Thee our worship flows.
'Tis the Father's tender mercy
That doth cause me to
rejoice;
And myself am given wholly
As a son thro' God's
own Choice.
God so loves us! God so loves us!
That He gave us His dear Son!
God so loves us! God so loves us!
That He gave us His dear Son!
God of love, our souls adore Thee!
We would still Thy
grace proclaim,
Till we cast our crowns before Thee,
And
in glory praise Thy name;
Praise and worship, Praise and worship,
Be to God and to the Lamb!
Praise and worship, Praise and worship,
Be to God and to the Lamb!
