MHB 402 – FATHER of our fathers, living still

Methodist-Hymns-402

1:  FATHER of our fathers, living still
In spite of dungeon, fire and sword,
O how our hearts beat high with joy
Whene’er we hear that glorious word.
Faith of our fathers! Holy faith!
We will be true to Thee till death.

2:  Our fathers, chained in prisons dark,
Were still in heart and conscience free;
And blest would be their children’s fate,
Though they, like them, should die for thee.

3:  Faith of our fathers! God’s great power
Shall win all nations unto thee;
And through the truth that comes from God
Mankind shall then be truly free.

4:  Faith of our fathers we will love
Both friend and foe in all our strife,
And preach thee, too, as love knows how,
By kindly words and virtuous life:
