Blest Are We, The Sons Of God!

Blest are we, the sons of God, Blest by our
unchanging God!
Blest eternally in Christ! Blest with
everlasting life!
Freely loved in Christ His Son, Ere God made
the blazing sun.
Chosen by our Father’s grace, Heav’n shall
be our resting place.
Blest are we, the sons of God, Blest by our
unchanging God!
Lift your heart to heaven high, “Father!
Abba, Father!” cry.
Though we rightly blush with shame, We among
the just are named!
We
stand just before our God, Bought with Jesus’ precious blood!
Robed in perfect righteousness, Called by
grace, we now have peace.
Blest are we, the sons of God, Blest by our
unchanging God!
We have fellowship with God Through the
Mediator’s blood.
By the Holy Spirit sealed, We shall o’er our
foes prevail!
Ransomed from death, hell, the grave, Life
eternal we shall have!
One with God, in Jesus one, Glory is in us
begun!
Blest are we, the sons of God, Blest by our
unchanging God!
Guide us, Father, by Your hand, Into
heaven’s better land.
There our weary souls we’ll rest On our
mighty Savior’s breast!
Finish, Lord, what You began. (Then we shall
be free from sin!)
“Heirs of God, joint-heirs with Christ!” Blest, we are forever blest!
Blest are we, the sons of God, Blest by our
unchanging God!
