1 Father of heaven, whose love profound
a ransom for our souls has found,
before Your throne we sinners bend;
to us Your pardoning love extend.
2 Almighty Son, incarnate Word,
our Prophet, Priest, Redeemer, Lord,
before Your throne we sinners bend;
to us Your saving grace extend.
3 Eternal Spirit, by whose breath
the soul is raised from sin and death,
before Your throne we sinners bend;
to us Your living power extend.
4 Jehovah – Father, Spirit, Son–
mysterious Godhead, Three-in-One,
before Your throne we sinners bend;
grace, pardon, life to us extend.
