Of the Father's Love Begotten
Of the Father’s love begotten, ere the worlds began to be,
He is Alpha and Omega, He the source, then ending He,
Of the things that are, that have been, and that future years shall see,
Evermore and evermore!
O that birth forever blessed, when the virgin full of grace,
By the Holy Ghost conceiving, bare the Saviour of our race;
And the Babe, the world’s Redeemer, first revealed His sacred face, Evermore and
evermore!
O ye heights of heav’n adore Him: Angel hosts, His praises sing;
Pow’rs, dominions, bow before Him, and extol our God and King;
Let no tongue on earth be silent, ev’ry voice in concert ring, Evermore and
evermore!
Thee let old men, Thee let young men, Thee let boys in chorus sing;
Matrons, virgins, little maidens, with glad voices answering:
Let their guileless songs re-echo, and the heart its music bring, Evermore and
evermore.
Christ, to Thee with God the Father, and, O Holy Ghost, to Thee,
Hymn and chant and high thanksgiving, and unwearied praises be:
Honour, glory, and dominion, and eternal victory, Evermore and evermore.
Alleluia, amen!
