O Father of glory, now grant unto me

lyricist: Adapted
Composer: I. E. Rummery

O Father of glory

now grant unto me

A spirit of wisdom

a spirit to see;

O give unto me the full knowledge of Him

Enlight’ning the eyes of my heart deep within.

O show me that Christ is the hope of Thy call—

O glorious hope

Christ will fill all in all!

Reveal Him—the riches of glory in us—

As God’s own inheritance. How glorious!

O God of our Lord Jesus

let me perceive

Th’ exceeding great pow’r unto us who believe

The power that raised Christ

Thy Son

from the dead

And made Him o’er all

to His Body

the Head.

O God

Thou hast wrought all this pow’r into Christ

Who now lives in me as my Person

my life.

O grant revelation

dear Father

to see

This transcending pow’r is a Person in me.

O Christ is the hope

He’s the glory and power;

So Christ I must take as my Person each hour.

Then in me such power will be exercised

My hope and God’s glory will be realized.
