Father of heav’n, whose love profound
A ransom for our souls hath found,
Before Thy throne we sinners bend;
To us Thy pard’ning love extend.

THE HAND OF THE FATHER
Both grace and love are a matter of the Triune God being our life and enjoyment. As we enjoy Christ as our grace, we need to come to the Father, whose love is the source of grace. When we enjoy Christ as our grace, and then through this grace we contact God the Father as the source of grace, we experience love. The Father with His love is also the source of life, and the Son is the course of life. We may enjoy both the source and the course, for we may enjoy both the love of the Father and the grace of Christ.
