Father, 'twas Thy love that knew us

| 1. | Father, 'twas Thy love that knew us |
| | Earth's foundation long before: |
| | That same love to Jesus drew us |
| | By its sweet constraining pow'r, |
| | And will keep us, and will keep us, |
| | Safely now, and evermore, |
| | Safely now, and evermore. |
| 2. | Now that changeless love enfolds us, |
| | All its wealth on us bestows; |
| | While its pow'r unchanging holds us |
| | In a holy calm repose. |
| | God and Father, God and Father, |
| | Unto Thee our worship flows, |
| | Unto Thee our worship flows. |
| 3. | God of love, our souls adore Thee! |
| | We would still Thy grace proclaim, |
| | Till we cast our crowns before Thee, |
| | And in glory praise Thy name; |
| | Praise and worship, praise and worship |
| | Be to God and to the Lamb! |
| | Be to God and to the Lamb! |
