The Crowning Day ‎#22

22. The Father’s Call

1 Hear the heav’nly Father calling,
“Now My tender mercies prove,
I will send you richest blessings,
Sweetest tokens of My love.”

Refrain:
In the crown of My rejoicing,
Bright as morning stars shall shine,
Then who fear Me, they who love Me,
Saith the Lord, “They shall be Mine.”

2 “In the book of my remembrance,
Shall their names forever be,
Who have spoke oft together,
Who have ever tho’t of Me.” [Refrain]

3 Help me bow in humble rev’rence,
Father, low before Thy throne,
Consecrating all unto Thee,
Make and seal me all Thine own. [Refrain]
