C.M.


1
BLEST Father, in Thy wondrous grace
We have our liberty
To be before Thee with Thy Son,
Clothed in the worth of that blest One
Whose love secured our place.
2
To bring to pass Thy counsels wise,
As Man He came to die,
Thine answer to His suffering love,
Christ now in glory is above,
Through Him our praises rise.
3
O Father, how we love to raise
To Thee our joyful song!
So perfectly has He expressed
Thyself in all Thy fulness blest,
Our hearts well forth in praise.
4
We worship Thee, blest Father Thou,
And magnify Thy Name;
Thy glory fills our willing hearts,
The Spirit sonship's joy imparts,
As we before The bow.
