Author: Steele Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #12 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 119 Lyrics: 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. Topics: The Bible; The Saving Word
