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!
