Text: | We give immortal praise |
Author: | Watts |
1 We give immortal praise
For God the Father's love,
For all our comforts here
And better hopes above:
He sent his own eternal Son
To die for sins that we had done.
2 To God the Son belongs
Immortal glory too,
Who bought us with his blood
From everlasting woe:
And now he lives and now he reigns,
And sees the fruit of all his pains.
3 To God the Spirit's name
Immortal worship give,
Whose new-creating power
Makes the dead sinner live:
His work completes the great design,
And fills the soul with joy divine.
4 Almighty God! to thee
Be endless honors done,
The undivided Three,
The great and glorious One:
Where reasons fails, with all her powers,
There faith prevails and love adores.
