Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9649 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Blest be the everlasting God,
The Father of our Lord;
Be His abounding mercy praised,
His majesty adored.
2 When from the dead He raised His Son,
And called Him to the sky,
He gave our souls a lively hope
That they should never die.
3 What though our inbred sins require
Our flesh to see the dust,
Yet as the Lord our Savior rose,
So all His followers must.
4 There’s an inheritance divine
Reserved against that day;
’Tis uncorrupted, undefiled,
And cannot waste away.
5 Saints by the power of God are kept
Till the salvation come;
We walk by faith as strangers here,
Till Christ shall call us home. Languages: English Tune Title: NATIVITY
Blest Be The Everlasting God
