Lyrics for "A Hymn To Our Father"

Psalm 147a.

You number the stars

And give each one a name

You send clouds to cover the sky

You water the earth with gentle rains

Gentle rains

And in Your heart, O God

We will never be forgotten

We are Your children

And You are the Father

Chorus:

Our Father

We love You

You are so good to us

All Your mercy

All Your goodness

Has surrounded us in love

Our Father

We love You

You are so good to us

All Your goodness

All Your mercy

Has surrounded us in love

You look down from heaven

You see the broken hearts

Our great physician, You bind up our wounds

With gentle care, gentle care

And in Your heart, O God

We will never be forgotten

We are Your children

And You are the Father

Chorus:

Our Father

We love You

You are so good to us

All Your goodness

All Your mercy

Has surrounded us in love

Our Father

We love You

You are so good to us

All Your goodness

All Your mercy

Has surrounded us in love

Lyrics to "By the God of Jacob We Are Blessed"

Verse 1)

I will not trust in earthly kings

Their breath departs, like fleeting things

Their only strength is the strength of man

Who returns to the dust, along with his plans

My hope is anchored deep in You

You breathe new life, Your word is truth

And You, You formed the world, and made it right

Entered into the dark, and brought the light

Chorus

By the God of Jacob

We are blessed

O Christ, You execute justice

For the oppressed

Oh Christ the King

You reign forever

Our tongues confess

As we sing together

By the God of Jacob

We are blessed

Lord, You still set the prisoners free

You still opened the eyes of the blind

You still lift up the fallen

You feed the hungry, the Lord provides

So let all creation praise Your name

Your goodness and mercy, forever the same

Oh, hallelujah, let our voices raise

For in You (the Lord) alone, we find our endless praise.

Lyrics to "The Eyes of All Look to You"

The eyes of all look to you

And You give them their food in due season

You open up Your hand, and satisfy

The desire of every living thing

To all those who are falling

Almighty God upholds you

To all who are bowed down

The Lord will raise you up

Chorus:

You are near

To all who call upon You

And You hear

The voice of all who fear You

Oh bless the Lord

Hallelujah

Let all flesh bless Your name

Forever and ever.

You preserve all who love You, in Your mercy

And all Your saints shall bless Your holy name

Your kingdom O Lord, is everlasting

Your promises are faithful and kind

To all those who are falling

Almighty God upholds you

To all who are bowed down

The Lord will raise you up

Hallelujah

To the Father and the Son

To the Holy Spirit

The faithful three in one

Hallelujah

To the Father and the Son

To the Holy Spirit

The faithful three in one

Amen

Lyrics to "It's Your Kindness"

Humble me O Lord

When my heart is proud

Let the righteous strike me

If I follow the crowd

A word from my sister

In and out of season

To save me from danger

Because my spirit needs it

Chorus

I need kindness

An act of a friend

Keeping watch

Over the door of my lips

Turn my eyes away

From the trap of temptation

By your grace, turn my eyes

Back to You

By your grace, O Christ, turn my eyes

Back to You

Can I sit at the table

If I hate correction

If I cannot tell evil

Or the fruit of deception

Let me love the Word of truth

And Your word of reproof

From a stranger or a friend

As though it came from You

Bring me to the table

By the hand my friend

Don’t let me wander

To the bitter end
