Father, Thy Son beloved leads our praise

Father, Thy Son beloved leads our praise After the banquet feast is had and done; How dear, how sweet to Thee the praise He leads, And in His praises joining we are one.

Father, we need no goodness more than Thee, Nor do we seek a love that's less than Thine; How we adore Thee now that here we know Thy searchless, uncreated life divine.

Father, within Thy love our love to Thee Grows, far transcending all our earthly ties; Thine own dear love in power leads our hearts Where Thine own presence deeply satisfies.

Father, by joining with Thy Son beloved, We all with gladness praise Thee now again; Joyfully feasting on Thy holy love, Tasting, as sons, the sweetness of Thy name.
