Text:Father, from Whose Hand
Tune:[Father, from whose hand doth spring]
Composer:G. F. Root, by per.

43. Father, from Whose Hand

1 Father, from whose hand doth spring,
Ev'ry good and perfect thing,
For the gift of life we raise
Songs of gratitude and praise.

2 Thou hast placed us here on earth
For a high and glorious birth;
And the precious boon hast given
To exchange this world for heaven.

3 Then, O Fount of ev'ry truth,
Guard and guide us in our youth;
Cleanse our souls from ev'ry stain
Take them pure to thee again.
