Abba, Father! We Approach Thee (EN 3939)

EN 3939 Abba, Father! We Approach Thee

Luke.15.24

Versi Version 1

1

“Abba, Father!” We approach Thee

In our Savior’s precious Name;

We, Thy children, here assembled,

Now Thy promised blessing claim;

From our sins His blood hath washed us,

’Tis through Him our souls draw nigh,

And Thy Spirit, too, hath taught us,

“Abba, Father,” thus to cry.

2

Once as prodigals we wandered

In our folly far from Thee,

But Thy grace, o’er sin abounding,

Rescued us from misery;

Thou Thy prodigals hast pardoned,

Kissed us with a Father’s love,

Spread the festive board, and called us,

E’er to dwell with Thee above.

3

Clothed in garments of salvation,

At Thy table is our place,

We rejoice, and Thou rejoicest,

In the riches of Thy grace;

“It is meet,” we hear Thee saying,

“We should merry and be glad,

I have found My once lost children,

Now they live who once were dead.”

4

“Abba, Father!” all adore Thee,

All rejoice in Heav’n above,

While in us they learn the wonders

Of Thy wisdom, grace, and love;

Soon before Thy throne assembled,

All Thy children shall proclaim,

“Glory, everlasting glory,

Be to God and to the Lamb!”
