Hymns, Selected and Original ‎#41

41. Father of glory! to thy name

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 died 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,
Through 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.
