My Father’s faithful to His Word
Because of Christ, My Lord.
For this He never will forsake
Me as His own child and heir.
I evermore shall live in peace
For Christ has purchased my release,
And there is nothing that can take
Me from my station there.

I shall, since Jesus for me died,
Be fully sanctified,
And thus be holy evermore
In body, spirit, and in soul.
“Blameless,” I shall then be declared
Upon that final day prepared
For Christ’s return. The evermore
I’ll be completely whole.

All praise to You, O God, I give,
By Whom I live, shall live!
For when I join that countless host,
I’ll sing the endless song of praise.
To God, the unbegotten One,
To Jesus Christ, th’ eternal Son,
And to th’ eternal Holy Ghost,
I’ll sing through endless days!
