As sinners saved we gladly praise
The Author of redeeming grace;
Father, ’tis Thine almighty power
Secures us when the tempests lower.
The Author of redeeming grace;
Father, ’tis Thine almighty power
Secures us when the tempests lower.
Thy love’s a refuge ever nigh,
Thy watchfulness a mountain high,
Thy name a rock which winds above
And waves below can never move.
Thy faithfulness, for ever sure,
Through endless ages shall endure;
Thy perfect work shall ever prove
The depth of Thine unceasing love.
While all things change, Thou changest not,
Forgetting ne’er, though oft forgot;
Thy love, immutably the same,
Displays the glory of Thy name.
Lord, we would then rejoice and praise
The Source of all this wondrous grace;
Father, Thine everlasting power
Will keep us safe in danger’s hour.
