"My Father 'tis of Thee" My Father 'tis of Thee I have sweet liberty, Of Thee I sing; Since Christ our Savior, died, Suffered the riven side, Poured forth salvation's tide, His praises ring. Eternal Saviour, Thou! To Whom all knees shall bow, Thy name I love. It is our Father's will, Thy fame all worlds shall fill, Thy name all hearts shall thrill-- All names above. May thy words music be, And may each heart set free Salvation's song: Let each the message take, Let all their silence break, Let all who hear partake-- The sound prolong. O Christ, lead us to Thee, Thine shall the glory be, To Thee we sing: Long may Thy reign be bright With justice, love and light, O shield us by Thy might, Great Christ, our King! ~Written By W. J. Johnson~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A Note from Cobblestone Road Ministries: The above poem can be sung to the melody of "My Country, Tis of Thee." 1Peter 1:3-5 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. All we have is because the Father sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. Jesus, the Christ, died for our sins-- He shed His blood for us and rose triumphant from the Grave! Oh that we could take that in. He is everything that we need! Forever we shall praise Him. He put His Spirit within us-- to abide. Oh what precious thoughts that this poem brings to our minds. Colossians 1:12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: If you do not know Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, click here to read about the Free Gift of Salvation.
