Together in Song ‎#220b

220b. This, this is the God we adore

1 This, this is the God we adore;
our faithful, unchangeable friend;
whose love is as great as his power,
and neither knows measures nor end.

2 'Tis Jesus the first and the last
whose Spirit shall guide us safe home;
we'll praise him for all that is past,
and trust him for all that's to come.
