5 VERSES
VERSE 1
Father of mercies, in Thy Word
What endless glory shines!
For ever be Thy name adored
For these celestial lines.
VERSE 2
Here may the wretched sons of want
Exhaustless riches find;
Riches, above what earth can grant,
And lasting as the mind.
VERSE 3
Here the fair tree of knowledge grows,
And yields a free repast;
Sublimer sweets than nature knows
Invite the longing taste.
VERSE 4
Here the Redeemer's welcome voice
Spreads heavenly peace around;
And life and everlasting joys
Attend the blissful sound.
VERSE 5
Divine instructor, gracious Lord,
Be Thou for ever near;
Teach me to love Thy sacred Word,
And view my Saviour there.
