Saving, Covenant Love — Don Fortner

(Tune: # 46 — O For A Thousand Tongues — CM )

1.    Awake, my soul, and join the song,

Sung by God’s saints above.

No theme so well employs the tongue,

As saving, cov’nant love.

2.    When o’er His wond’rous works of grace,

Revealed by God I rove,

I see the worst of Adam’s race

Are saved by cov’nant love.

3.    My Surety’s work, my Father’s word,

Forever firm shall prove;

The Spirit’s gifts, (O blessed Lord!)

Sweet proofs of cov’nant love.

4.    My life and strength, my joy and peace,

My hope of bliss above —

My union with the Prince of Peace,

All flow from cov’nant love.

5.    Here then I’ll live; and here I’ll die!

From here I will not move:

And, when I sit with Christ on high,

I’ll sing of cov’nant love.

Don Fortner
