Oh Lord, Our God




Oh, Source of hope divine
That bids heart’s storm be still
What blessed joy and peace is mine
When yielded to Thy will

Oh, kind and faithful Friend
The well-spring of Thy love
Has no beginning and no end
Immortal and enough

Oh, Name above all names
The Way, the Truth, the Life
Thy Word assures where reason blames
And longing wields its knife

Oh, Lord of Heav'n and earth
Creation's architect
Originator of all birth
To whom all is subject

Oh, bulwark for Belief
Compassion’s offering
You long to gather us beneath
The Shelter of your wing

Oh, fountain filled with grace
Thanksgiving overflows
For what You bore in our place
To save us from hell’s throes

Oh, steadfast strength and Stay
Oh, mentor for the soul
Instill in us today, I pray
The faith that makes us whole

Amen

 Eph.3:14-19
 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, 
to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,
 May be able to comprehend with all saints 
what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, 
that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
