FATHER, WHOSE EVERLASTING LOVE

[1]
Father, whose everlasting love
your only Son for sinners gave,
whose grace to all did freely move,
and sent him down the world to save:

[2]
help us your mercy to extol,
immense, unfathomed, unconfined;
to praise the Lamb who died for all,
the general Saviour of mankind.

[3]
Your undistinguishing regard
was cast on Adam's fallen race;
for all you have in Christ prepared
sufficient, sovereign, saving grace.

[4]
The world he suffered to redeem;
for all he has the atonement made;
for those that will not come to him
the ransom of his life was paid.

[5]
Arise, O God, maintain your cause!
The fullness of the nations call;
lift up the standard of your cross,
and all shall own you died for all.
