We Worship Thee

We sang this hymn yesterday at Meadow Ridge during the Remembrance Meeting. I appreciate the simple profundity of these words.

We Worship Thee
Father, we worship thee,
Thro' Thy beloved Son;
And, by the Spirit, now draw near
Before Thy holy throne.

We bless Thee Thou art Light,
Righteous and true art Thou;
Holy and reverend Thy name,
Our hearts before Thee bow.

We bless Thee Thou art Love,
How vast that matchless grace,
Whose breadth and length and height and depth
No finite mind can trace!

We bless Thee most of all
For Him Who Thee unveiled;
Whose precious blood redemption wrought,
And thus Thy heart revealed.

For what Thou art, we praise
And worship and adore:
To Father, Son and Spirit be
The glory evermore!

~ A.P. Gibbs
