God, Before the World's
Foundation
Sarah's rose 2

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every
spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
just as He chose us in Him
before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before
Him in love...   Ephesians 1:3,4

God before the world's foundation
Chose us in His blessed Son.
His elect from ev'ry nation,
God loved us and made us one.
Blessed be your name, O Father
For the riches of your grace.
You have sent your Son to rescue
Us from Adam's ruined race. 

You have made us sons and daughters
Though we once were dead in sin.
Blessed be your name, O Father;
You gave us new life within.

By the precious blood of Jesus,
We've been cleansed from all our sin.

In Christ we have ev'ry blessing.
Peace with God and life through Him.

On the cross despised, rejected
There the Savior took our place.
Suff'ring, dying and forsaken,
Bearing our sin and disgrace.
Blessed be your name, O Father,
For the gift of your dear Son.
From the grave our Savior triumphed
Everlasting life He won.

Far above the heav'ns, in glory,
There our Savior took His place
At the right hand of the Father
Where we'll see His glorious face.
Blessed be your name, O Father
For the riches of your grace.
You've brought us into your kingdom,
Out of Adam's fallen race.
