Hymns - Father of All, Whose Powerful Voice - Текст песни

Father of all, whose powerful voice
Called forth this universal frame,
Whose mercies over all rejoice,
Through endless ages still the same:

Inflame our hearts with perfect love,
In us the work of faith fulfil;
So not heaven's host shall swifter move
Than we on earth, to do thy will.

On thee we cast our care; we live
Through thee, who know'st our every need;
O feed us with thy grace, and give
Our souls this day the living bread.

Eternal, spotless Lamb of God,
Before the world's foundation slain,
Sprinkle us ever with thy blood,
O cleanse, and keep us ever clean!

Giver and Lord of life, whose power
And guardian care for all are free,
To thee, in fierce temptation's hour,
From sin and Satan let us flee.

Thine, Lord, we are, and ours thou art;
In us be all thy goodness showed.
Renew, enlarge, and fill our heart
With peace, and joy, and heaven, and God.

Thrice holy! Thine the kingdom is,
The power omnipotent is thine;
And, when created nature dies,
Thy never-ceasing glories shine.
