355. Father of Mercies, In Thy Word

1 Father of mercies, in Thy Word
What endless glory shines!
For ever be Thy Name adored
For these celestial lines.

2 Oh, may these heavenly pages be
My ever dear delight,
And still new beauties may I see,
And still increasing light.

3 Divine Instructor, gracious Lord,
Be Thou for ever near;
Teach me to love Thy sacred Word,
And view my Saviour there.

AMEN.
