Wherefore, O Fa­ther, we Thy hum­ble serv­ants
Lamb of God, ad­or­ing,
No more in ang­uish bleed­ing,
Father, Son and Ho­ly Ghost,
Tho’ born in a man­ger, the Fa­ther’s own child;
In this hal­lowed place.
Lo, the won­drous mes­sage rings.
We would bow be­fore Thy throne.
Heaven ab­ove and earth be­low;
Abba, Fa­ther, hear our cry!
And let me but serve Thee while I live.
And let me but serve Thee while I live.
Why await the far off fu­ture,
The peo­ple of the He­brews

be­fore Thee

What is wrong I’ll make it right be­fore thee,
All per­fect of­fer­ing, sac­ri­fice im­mor­tal,
Shepherd, keep all Thy sheep,
But not for mer­cy plead­ing.
Thou their wants and dan­gers know’st
And praise and adore Thee,
And ad­ore Thee, Lord of grace.
Dost thou fear to walk alone?
So on earth Thy will be done.
Trembling and de­feat­ed bow.
We are weak—but migh­ty Thou;
And with all my heart con­fess
And with all my heart con­fess
Thou must sow be­fore thou reap­est,
Our pray­er and praise and an­thems
