Hymn 197  

SUBJECT: PRAISE OF THE LORD—HIS ALL-INCLUSIVENESS
METER: 8.6.8.6.
AUTHOR: Witness Lee
COMPOSER: Arranged from William Gardiner

1How all-inclusive, Lord, Thou art;
  Of God we are in Thee-
 The portion God prepared for us,
  Our all in all to be.
2Thou art to us God’s wisdom true,
  We all are saved through Thee;
 Thou art God’s only way to save,
  Thou art our only plea.
3Thou art to us our righteousness,
  All God requires to meet;
 In Thee we all are justified,
  In Thee we are complete.
4Thou art to us our holiness
  That we may be transformed;
 In Thee we all are sanctified,
  To Thee we’ll be conformed.
5Thou art to us redemption too,
  That we Thy likeness bear;
 Transfigured will our bodies be
  Thy liberty to share.
6Dear Lord, while we remember Thee,
  Enjoying all Thou art,
 We thus would hasten Thy return
  And ne’er from Thee depart.
7How sweet to have this foretaste here,
  A taste so wonderful,
 Yet still we fain would be with Thee,
  And share Thyself in full.
