37. Father of glory, to thy name

1 Father of glory, to thy name
Immortal praise we give,
Who dost an act of grace proclaim,
And bid'st us, rebels, live!

2 Immortal honor to the SON,
Who makes thine anger cease;
Our lives he ransom'd with his own,
And dy'd to make our peace.

3 To the Almighty SPIRIT be
Immortal glory given;
Whose influence brings us near to thee,
And trains us up for heaven.

4 Let men, with their united voice,
Adore th' eternal God;
And spread his honors, and their joys,
Through nations far abroad.

5 Let faith and love and duty join
One general song to raise;
And saints in earth and heaven combine
In harmony and praise.
