1 Father of glory, to thy name
Immortal praise we give,
Who dost an act of grace proclaim,
And bid us rebels live.
2 Immortal honour to the Son,
Who makes thine anger cease;
Our lives he ransom'd with his own,
And dy'd to make our peace.
3 To thy Almighty Spirit be
Immortal glory given,
Whose influence brings us near to thee,
And trains us up for heaven.
4 Let men, with their united voice,
Adore th' eternal God,
And spread his honours and their joys,
Thro' nations far abroad.
5 Let faith, and love, and duty join,
One general song to raise,
And saints in earth and heaven combine
In harmony and praise.
