| Hymn A & M 441- O FATHER, we thank thee for Jesus thy Son |
1. O FATHER, we thank thee for
Jesus thy Son,
For All that for us by his death he
Hath won,
His rising easter, his reign on thy
throne,
His gift of the Spirit to make us thine
own.
2. All praise to thee, Lord, for evange-
lists brave,
The witness by word and by life
that they gave.
The church of our fathers, the home
of us all,
Her sturdy grey towers and steeples
so tall.
3. All praise for the masons who built
them so true
With axe and with chisel, the best
that they knew:
All praise for the craftsmen who
carved with a will,
The nave and the chancel with glory
to fill.
4. How surely they painted, those
Guildsmen of old,
The screen with its martyrs aglimmer
with gold!
How fair shone their windows which
let the sun through,
And flecked the white pillars with
crimson and blue!
5. Then ring out, ye belfries, from hill
and from plain,
And thunder, ye organs, in deep-
toned refrain:
Praise God, priest and people, for
blessings outpoured
On Britain, our homeland, Yes.
