I bow my knees to the Father, All in Heaven and earth are named; Who has given us a Brother, Which unto us has been proclaimed. Granting to wealth of His glory, You are strengthened with His power; And acquitted by a jury, At the future final hour. For the power of His Spirit, While in your inner being; For guiding you through your merit, From darkness that you are fleeing. So that Christ may dwell in your heart, Through faith that is rooted in love; Enables the Word to impart, Of heavenly thoughts from above. May it have strength to comprehend. With all the saints what is the length; Reminding you God is a friend, Who is willing to give you strength. To know the love of Jesus Christ, With the knowledge that surpasses; You are filled who was sacrificed; That God forgave your trespasses. Now to Him who can do far more, For transcending abundantly; As well as who can reassure, Not be done as reluctantly. Granting the power within us, As in the glory of the church; Through all generations as thus, For Christ Jesus throughout your search. Copyright © 2020 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
