Our Great Redeemer's Praise ‎#53

53. Father, Whose Everlasting Love

1 Father, whose everlasting Love
Your only Son for sinners gave,
whose grace to all did freely move,
and sent Him to the world to save.

2 Help us Your mercy to extol,
immense, unfathomed, unconfined;
to praise the Lamb who died for all,
the Savior of all humankind.

3 Your undistinguishing regard
was cast on Adam's fallen race;
for all You have in Christ prepared
sufficient, sov'reign, saving grace.

4 The world He suffered to redeem;
for all He has atonement made;
for those that will not come to Him
the ransom of his life was paid.

5 Arise, O God, maintain Your cause!
The fulness of the nations call;
lift up the standard of Your cross,
and all shall own You died for all.
