12. Father of mercies, in thy Word

1 Father of mercies, in thy Word
What endless glory shines!
Forever be thy name adored
For these celestial lines.

2 Here the Redeemer's welcome voice
Spreads heavenly peace around;
And life, and everlasting joys,
Attend the blissful sound.

3 Oh, may these heavenly pages be
Our ever dear delight;
And still new beauties may we see,
And still increasing light.

4 Divine Instructor, gracious Lord!
Be thou forever near;
Teach us to love thy sacred word,
And view the Saviour there.
