Of the Father’s Love Begotten
Author: Aurelius Clemens Prudentius, 5th cent.; Henry Williams Baker; John M. Neale Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 214 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 145:1 First Line: Of the Father's love begotten Refrain First Line: evermore and evermore! Lyrics: 1 Of the Father's love begotten,
ere the worlds began to be,
he is Alpha and Omega;
he the source, the ending he,
of the things that are, that have been,
and that future years shall see,
evermore and evermore!
2 By his Word was all created;
he commanded; it was done:
heaven and earth and depths of ocean,
universe of three in one,
all that sees the moon’s soft shining,
all that breathes beneath the sun,
evermore and evermore!
3 O, that birth forever blessed
when the Virgin, full of grace,
by the Holy Ghost conceiving,
bore the Savior of our race,
and the babe, the world’s Redeemer,
first revealed his sacred face,
evermore and evermore!
4 This is he whom seers in old time
chanted of with one accord,
whom the voices of the prophets
promised in their faithful word.
Now he shines, the long-expected.
Let creation praise its Lord,
evermore and evermore!
5 O ye heights of heaven, adore him.
Angel hosts, his praises sing.
Powers, dominions, bow before him,
and extol our God and King.
Let no tongue on earth be silent;
every voice in concert ring,
evermore and evermore!
6 Christ, to thee with God the Father,
and, O Holy Ghost, to thee,
hymn and chant and high thanksgiving
and unwearied praises be.
Honor, glory, and dominion,
and eternal victory,
evermore and evermore! Amen.

for mortal tongue.

who ran this earthly race,
and now, from sin released,
behold the Saviour's face,
his praises sound,
as in his light
with sweet delight
ye do abound.

adore your heavenly King,
and onward as ye go,
some joyful anthem sing;
take what he gives
and praise him still
through good or ill,
who ever lives.
4 My soul, take now thy part,
triumph in God above,
and with a well-tuned heart
sing out the songs of love.
Let all thy days
till life shall end,
whate'er he send,
be filled with praise. Topics: Our Response to God in adoration and gratitude; The Church Celebrates Oneness with the Church in Heaven; Angels; Communion of Saints; Music and Song Used With Tune: CROFT'S 136th

The God who reigns above
And rules the world below
In boundless pow'r and love.
Our thanks we bring,
In joy and praise
Our hearts we raise
To heav'n's high King.

May well Thy love declare,
From foes and fears at rest,
Protected by Thy care.
For this fair land,
For this bright day,
Our thanks we pay--
Gifts of Thy hand.

Each vale and forest green,
Shine in Thy Word's pure light
And its rich fruits be seen!
May ev'ry tongue
Be tuned to praise,
And join to raise
A grateful song!
4 Earth! hear thy Maker's voice,
Thy great Redeemer own;
Believe, obey, rejoice,
And worship Him alone.
Cast down thy pride,
Thy sin deplore,
And bow before
The Crucified.

Oh, may our native land
From all its rending tombs
Send forth a glorious band,
A countless throng,
Ever to sing
To heaven's high King
Salvation's song!
