1 Father of mercies! in Thy word
What endless glory shines!
For ever be Thy Name adored
For these celestial lines.
3 Here the Redeemer's welcome voice
Spreads heavenly peace around;
And life and everlasting joys
Attend the blissful sound.
4 O may these heavenly pages be
My ever dear delight;
And still new beauties may I see,
And still increasing light.
5 Divine Instructor, gracious Lord,
Be Thou forever near;
Teach me to love Thy sacred word,
And view my Saviour there.
