Father in whom we live

Author: Charles Wesley 1707-1788 Appears in 102 hymnals Scripture: John 1:14 Lyrics: 1 Father in whom we live, in whom we are and move, the glory, power, and praise receive of thy creating love. Let all the angel throng give thanks to God on high, while earth repeats the joyful song, and echoes to the sky. 2 Incarnate Deity, let all the ransomed race render in thanks their lives to thee for thy redeeming grace. The grace to sinners showed ye heavenly choirs proclaim, and cry: 'Salvation to our God, salvation to the Lamb!' 3 Spirit of holiness, let all thy saints adore thy sacred energy, and bless thine heart-renewing power. Not angel tongues can tell thy love's ecstatic height, the glorious joy unspeakable, the beatific sight. 4 Eternal triune Lord! Let all the hosts above, let all the sons of men, record and dwell upon thy love. When heaven and earth are fled before thy glorious face, sing all the saints thy love hath made thine everlasting praise. Topics: Trinity Sunday Used With Tune: DIADEMATA

There he wins our full salvation, dies that we may die no more; then arising, lives for ever, reigning where he was before. 4 High on yon celestial mountains stands his sapphire throne, all bright, midst unending alleluias bursting from the saints in light; Sion's people tell his praises, victor after hard-won fight. 5 Bring your harps, and bring your incense, sweep the string and pour the lay; let the earth proclaim his wonders, King of that celestial day; he the Lamb once slain is worthy, who was dead, and lives for ay. 6 Laud and honour to the Father, laud and honour to the Son, laud and honour to the Spirit, ever Three and ever One, consubstantial, co-eternal, while unending ages run.
