He’s Real to Me

Author: Essek W. Kenyon Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: He’s real to me, my Father God Refrain First Line: He’s real to me, He’s real to me Lyrics: 1 He’s real to me, my Father God, I know Him through His precious Word; He’s real to me, my Shepherd King, I see Him now in everything. Refrain: He’s real to me, He’s real to me, My Father God is real to me; My soul demands Reality, My Father God is real to me. 2 It’s real to my, my Savior’s blood, By grace the truth I’ve understood, It’s pow’r o’er sin and flashy lust Is now so real I fully trust. [Refrain] 3 The Spirit’s real, His mighty power Protects me in temptation’s hour; In perfect light He guideth me And makes Himself Reality. [Refrain] 4 His word is real, O soul rejoice, It is your blessed Savior’s voice; It tells you of His constant love That intercedes for you above. [Refrain] 5 O soul, He will be real to thee If thou but claim Reality; Be real thyself in every part, Reality will fill thy heart. [Refrain] 6 His promise is so real to me, Of His return Reality; When I shall see His blessed face, I’ll praise Him for His wondrous grace. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [He’s real to me, my Father God]
