419. O Saviour, precious Saviour

1 O Saviour, precious Saviour,
Whom yet unseen we love;
O Name of might and favor,
All other names above;
We worship thee, we bless thee,
To thee alone we sing;
We praise thee and confess thee,
Our holy Lord and King.

2 O bringer of salvation,
Who wondrously hast wrought,
Thyself the revelation
Of love beyond our thought;
We worship thee, we bless thee,
To thee alone we sing;
We praise thee and confess thee,
Our gracious Lord and King. A-men.

3 In thee all fullness dwelleth,
All grace and power divine;
The glory that excelleth,
O Son of God, is thine.
We worship thee, we bless thee,
To thee alone we sing;
We praise thee and confess thee,
Our glorious Lord and King.

4 O grant the consummation
Of this our song above,
In endless adoration
And everlasting love;
Then shall we praise and bless thee
Where perfect praises ring,
And evermore confess thee,
Our Saviour and our King.

Amen.
