Hymn 26 — Father, thy love our portion is,
| 26 | J. N. DARBY (1800-1882) | C.M. |
| 1 |
Father, thy love our portion is, As sons, like Christ, with Thee; O who can tell of love like this, So sovereign, full and free? | |
| 2 |
His Father Thou, and ours through grace, We taste the same delight; Blest in the brightness of Thy face, In heav'n's unclouded light. | |
| 3 |
Unchanging glory fills the place Where Jesus dwells on high, But brighter joy our spirits trace With Him, for ever nigh! | |
| 4 |
Eternal ages shall declare The riches of Thy grace, To those who with Thy Son shall share A son's eternal place. | |
| 5 |
Father, Thy love, the source of all, Sweeter than all it gives, Shines on us now without recall, And lasts while Jesus lives. | |
| 6 |
We joy in Thee, Thy holy love Our endless portion is -- Like Thine own Son, with Him above, In brightest heav'nly bliss. | |
