Author: Francis P. Jones Hymnal: The Hymnbook #107 (1955) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.4.7 Lyrics: 1 Father, long before creation
Thou hadst chosen us in love;
And that love, so deep, so moving,
Draws us close to Christ above.
Still it keeps us, Still it keeps us,
Firmly fixed in Christ alone.
2 Though the world may change its fashion,
Yet our· God is e'er the same;
His compassion and His covenant
Through all ages will remain.
God's own children, God's own children,
Must forever praise His name.
3 God's compassion is my story,
Is my boasting all the day;
Mercy free and never failing
Moves my will, directs my way.
God so loved us, God so loved us,
That His only Son He gave.
4 Loving Father, now before Thee
We will ever praise Thy love;
And our song will sound unceasing
Till we reach our home above,
Giving glory, Giving glory,
To our God and to the Lamb.
Amen. Topics: God Love and Fatherhood; God the Father His Love and Fatherhood Scripture: John 3:16 Tune Title: MILLER CHAPEL
