Turner Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Up to thy throne, O Father above Refrain First Line: Thus to adore thee, Father above Lyrics: 1 Up to thy throne, O Father above, We lift our glad voices in praise; Up to the source of infinite love Our songs of rejoicing we raise. Refrain: Thus to adore thee, Father above, Here in thy presence we meet; Songs to thy love, thy wonderful love, Together we gladly repeat. 2 Over our pathway, gracious and clear, The light of thy blessing has shone; Mercies unfailing, joys ever dear, From thy tender care we have known.
