1. Father, how wonderful to call You ʻFather!ʼ
To know Your loving arms surround me,
Gently leading through each day, through each day.
2. Jesus, the Son who brought me to the Father,
The One who bore the shame of Calvʼry,
To blaze the trail and lead the way.
Spirit, dear Holy Spirit,
Though I was dead in sin, You quickened me.
Through Christ, You breathed Your life into me,
And made my blinded eyes to see—
So now I'm singing:
3. Glory, living in God's love is glory,
I lift my hands in awe before Thee,
Lost in wonder, love, and praise.

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 loveʼs 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.
35 Christine Dieckmann
1. Jehovah, God Almighty,
You who created all,
We followed our own way,
Like sheep wandered astray,
And knew the terror of our fall.
But in great love and mercy
You graced us in Your Son,
Whilst we were dead in sin,
Made us alive in Him,
When salvation for us You won.
