Author: Basil Woodd Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #64 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Ephesians 2:12-13 First Line: Hail, Thou Source of ev'ry blessing Lyrics: 1 Hail, Thou Source of ev'ry blessing,
Sov'reign Father of mankind!
Gentiles now, Thy grace possessing,
In Thy courts admission find.
Grateful now, we fall before Thee,
In Thy Church obtain a place;
Now by faith behold Thy glory,
Praise thy truth, adore Thy grace.
2 Once far off, but now invited,
We approach Thy sacred throne;
In Thy covenant united,
Reconciled, redeemed, made one.
Now revealed to eastern sages,
See the star of mercy shine;
Mystery hid in former ages,
Mystery great of love divine.
3 Hail, Thou all-inviting Saviour!
Gentiles now their offerings bring;
In Thy temple seek Thy favor,
Jesus Christ, our Lord and King.
May we, body, soul, and spirit,
Live devoted to Thy praise,
Glorious realms of bliss inherit,
Grateful anthems ever raise.
