Father of lights, whose will divine
Has by Thy truthful word
Begotten us, and made us Thine,
For aye be Thou adored.
Thine, Father, was
the wondrous grace
That sent Thine only Son
To show Thy glory in the face
Of Thy beloved One.
He came Thy great
and blessed name
Of Father to declare,
The Just, to meet
Thine every claim,
The Sinless, sin to bear.
Thus only, Father,
couldst Thou raise
From depths of sin and shame
A chosen people for the praise
And glory of Thy name.
Oh, counsel all divine to find
True worshippers in those
Who once, estranged
by carnal mind,
Were Thine and Jesus' foes!
Then glory, Father, be to Thee,
And to Thine only Son;
All glory to the One in Three
And to the Three in One.
