SONS WE ARE, THROUGH GOD'S ELECTION

DON FORTNER

(Tune: Love Divine #2 87.87.D)

Sons we are, through God's election,

Who in Jesus Christ believe;

By eternal destination,

Saving grace we now receive.

Our Redeemer, our Redeemer

Does both grace and glory give!

Our Redeemer, our Redeemer

Does both grace and glory give!

Every soul of man, by sinning,

Merits everlasting pain;

But God's love, without beginning,

Formed and fixed salvation's plan.

Chosen sinners, (countless millions!),

Shall with Christ forever reign!

Chosen sinners, (countless millions!)

Shall with Christ forever reign!

Pause, my soul! Adore and wonder!

Ask, "O why such love to me?"

Grace has put me in the number

Of the Savior's family!

I will glory, I will glory

Only in the Lord my God!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Glory, praise, and thanks to God!
