Eternal life O Lord,
Your promise has been given;
To all who truly trust in God;
One day will go to heaven.

Life that is sweet and good,
That feeds and satisfies;
That overflows, that brings forth fruit,
That our God glorifies.

What angel can express,
What sparkling, radiant life;
Jesus we come to You for dress,
We come to You for life.

We thirst O Lord for Thee,
We hunger for Your love;
Come fill us, is our constant plea,
Come, come, O heavenly Dove.

We’ll bless and sing Your praise,
Our worship bring to Thee;
Through all the ages, stand and gaze,
And bless eternally.

(Tune: Trentham; Franconia; Dennis; SM)
