O God, Thou Art the Father
St. Columba • Duncan Macgregor • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 2:6
Verse 1
O God, thou art the Father of all that have believed: from whom all hosts of angels have life and power received. O God, thou art the maker of all created things, the righteous Judge of judges, the almighty King of kings.
Verse 2
High in the heavenly Zion thou reignest God adored; and in the coming glory thou shalt be Sovereign Lord. Beyond our ken thou shinest, the everlasting Light; ineffable in loving, unthinkable in might.
Verse 3
Thou to the meek and lowly thy secrets dost unfold; O God, thou doest all things, all things both new and old. I walk secure and blessèd in every clime or coast, in name of God the Father, and Son, and Holy Ghost.
