Tune: Dominus Regit Me
(\'The King of love my Shepherd is\')
1 Peter 1 v.17-21
********
You call on God the Father, He
Without partiality
Judges each ones work righteously
Serve Him humbly, reverently
Pass the time of our earthly days
In godly fear, in His ways
Knowing this your temporary home
Until Christ for His people come
For you know you were not redeemed
With worldly things, though they gleamed
Nor saved through silver and gold things
They perish, though they world\'s wealth bring
You were redeemed with precious blood
Of Christ, it a cleansing flood
He as a lamb, no blemish, spot
His atonement our perfect lot
He truly was ordained before
Foundation of the world sure
But was shown in these last days for
You, to bring you salvation pure
By Christ you do in God believe
He raised from dead, no deceive
God raised Him, and gave Him glory
That in God our faith, hope might be
