Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ; according as he has chosen us in him before [the] world's foundation, that we should be holy and blameless before him in love; Ephesians 1:3,4
For the Father himself has affection for you, because ye have had affection for me, and have believed that I came out from God. John 16:27

Romans 16:26, Romans 1:20Father, in Thine eternal power,
1 Timothy 1:2, Titus 2:11Thy grace and majesty divine,
Acts 16:33, Romans 11:33No soul, in this weak mortal hour,
1 Peter 5:10, Romans 11:33Can grasp the glory that is Thine!

2 Timothy 1:9, Titus 2:11E'en in its thoughts of boundless grace
1 Peter 2:10, Romans 11:34It leaves us all far, far behind;

Ephesians 3:20, Romans 11:34Surpasses our poor feeble mind!

Revelation 3:9, Romans 5:11And yet that love is not unknown
2 Corinthians 3:18, Hebrews 2:9To those who have the Saviour seen;
John 10:4, John 10:12Nor strange to those He calls His own,
1 Peter 2:11, 1 Peter 2:21Pilgrims in scenes where He has been.

John 15:9, John 16:27In Him Thy perfect love revealed
John 16:27, Romans 8:39Has left our hearts that love to trace,
John 16:27, Romans 5:5Where nothing of that love's concealed,
Isaiah 66:2, Romans 5:8But meets us in our lowly place.

Ephesians 4:1, Galatians 5:25And here we walk as sons, through grace,
2 Thessalonians 2:16, Romans 5:5A Father's love our present joy;
Hebrews 2:10, Luke 15:24Sons in the brightness of Thy face
2 Thessalonians 2:16, John 16:33Find rest no sorrows can destroy!
