We Bless the Name of Christ, the Lord

We bless the name of Christ

the Lord

We bless Him for His ho­ly Word

Who loved to do His Fa­ther’s will

And all His right­eous­ness ful­fill.

We fol­low Him with pure de­light

To sanc­ti­fy His sac­red rite;

And thus our faith with wa­ter seal

To prove obe­di­ence that we feel.

Baptized in God—the Fa­ther

Son

And Ho­ly Spir­it—Three in One

With con­science free

we rest in God

In love and peace

through Je­sus’ blood.

By grace we Ab­ba

Fa­ther cry;

By grace the Com­fort­er comes nigh;

And for Thy grace our love shall be

Forever

on­ly

Lord

for Thee.
