Love of the Father, Love of God the Son

Author: Robert Bridges, 1844-1930 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #125 (1958) Lyrics: 1 Love of the Father, love of God the Son, From whom all came, in whom was all begun; Who formest heavenly beauty out of strife, Creation’s whole desire and breath of life: A-men. 2 Thou the all-holy, thou supreme in might, Thou dost give peace, thy presence maketh right; Thou with thy favor all things dost enfold, With thine all-kindness free from harm wilt hold. 3 Eternal glory, all men thee adore, Who art and shalt be worshipped evermore: Us whom thou madest, comfort with thy might, And lead us to enjoy thy heavenly light.
