父阿, 久在創世之前

一 父阿,久在創世之前,祢選我們愛無限;

這愛甘美、激勵、深厚,吸引我們親耶穌。

還要保守,還要保守,我們今後永穩固。

我們今後永穩固。

二 雖然宇宙逐漸改遷,但是我神總不變;

祂的愛心,同祂話語,向著我們永堅定。

神的兒女,神的兒女,我們應當讚祂名。

我們應當讚祂名。

三 神的憐憫,是我詩歌,我口所誇心所樂;

從始至終,惟有白恩,能得我命感我心。

神愛我們!神愛我們,連祂愛子都不吝!

連祂愛子都不吝!

四 愛的神阿,我們現在同心歌頌祢奇愛;

直到天上,遠離塵囂,我們仍是要稱揚。

但願榮耀,但願榮耀,永遠歸神和羔羊。

永遠歸神和羔羊。

Father, `Twas Thy Love That Knew Us

1. Father, 'twas Thy love that knew us,

Earth's foundation long before;

That same love to Jesus drew us,

By its sweet constraining pow'r,

And will keep us, and will keep us,

safely now, and evermore.

Safely now and evermore.

2. Now that changeless love enfolds us,

All its wealth on us bestows,

While its pow'r unchanging holds us

In a holy calm repose.

God and Father, God and Father

Unto Thee our worship flows,

Unto Thee our worship flows.

3. 'Tis the Father's tender mercy

That doth cause me to rejoice;

And myself am given wholly

As a son thro' God's own Choice.

God so loves us! God so loves us!

That He gave us His dear Son!

That He gave us His dear Son!

4. God of love, our souls adore Thee!

We would still Thy grace proclaim,

Till we cast our crowns before Thee,

And in glory praise Thy name;

Praise and worship, Praise and worship,

Be to God and to the Lamb!

Be to God and to the Lamb!
