C majorC            G+G
 Looking out from his throne
D MajorD           C majorC
Father of light and of men

 Simple strokes on a page

Eternities, secrets revealed
    C majorC       G+G
Carried on from age to age
  D MajorD            C majorC
It speaks truth to us even still
C majorC              E minorEm
And as the rain falls from heaven
     D MajorD         A minorAm
Feeds the earth before it returns
   C majorC           G+G
Lord, let Your word fall on us
