131. Praise We to the Father Give
7s.
by J. Montgomery
Praise we to the Father give,
God in whom we move and live;
Children’s praise He loves to hear,
Children’s songs delight His ear.
Praise we to the Firstborn bring,
Christ the Prophet, Priest and King;
Glad we raise our sweetest strain
To the Lamb that once was slain!
Praises for the Holy Ghost
Sent from heaven at Pentecost!
’Tis through Him alone we live,
And the precious truth receive.
“But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.” (1 John 2:27)
Blest our portion thus to be
For the gospel from above,
For the word that "God is love."
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. <<The second epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi, a city of Macedonia, by Titus and Lucas.>>.” (2 Corinthians 13:14)
