7. Hymn: Blest Father, Infinite in Grace

Hymn: Blest Father, Infinite in Grace

Author: John Nelson Darby (1800-1882)   

1. Blest Father, infinite in grace,
    Source of eternal joy;
    Thou leadst our hearts to that blest place
    Where rest's without alloy.  

2. There will Thy love find perfect rest,
    Where all around is bliss,
    Where all in Thee supremely blest,
    Thy praise their service is.  

3. Eternal love their portion is,
    Where love has found its rest;
    And, filled with Thee, the constant mind
    Eternally is blest.  

4. There Christ, the centre of the throng,
    Shall in His glory shine;
    But not an eye those hosts among
    But sees His glory Thine.  

5. Yet deeper, if a calmer, joy
    The Father's love shall raise,
    And ev'ry heart find sweet employ
    In His eternal praise.
