EN 5749 O Father, We Would Thank Thee

1John.3.1

Versi Version 1

1

O Father, we would thank Thee

For all Thy love has given,

Our present joy of sonship,

Our future joy in Heaven;

The life which sin had blighted

So wondrously restored

By our mysterious union

With Jesus Christ our Lord.

2

Rich gifts of life and gladness—

A new and heav’nly birth,

Baptismal waters flowing

To cleanse the sons of earth;

The strength in which to follow

The steps that Jesus trod;

And love beyond all knowledge

Which calls us sons of God.

3

O mercy all abundant

Bestowed on us today!

O hope of future glory

Which fadeth not away!

By God’s great love begotten

To living hope and sure,

May we at Christ’s appearing

Be pure as He is pure.

4

For all Thy gifts, O Father,

Our hymns of praise arise—

The love which calls us children,

The hope which purifies;

The grace by which we offer

A service glad and free;

The earnest of perfection,

Of fuller life with Thee.
