Beautiful Hymn “God of Our Fathers” – Gaither Homecoming Featuring Shane McConnell

Watch this beautiful hymn “God of Our Fathers” performed at the Gaither Homecoming Featuring Shane McConnell. This is a 19th-century American Christian hymn, written in 1876 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence. It was written by Daniel C. Roberts, a priest in the Protestant Episcopal Church serving, at the time, as rector of St. Thomas & Grace Episcopal churches in Brandon, Vermont. Be blessed!

The Gaither Vocal Band was founded in the early ’80s by renowned Christian music leader Bill Gaither. GVB became one of America’s leading southern gospel vocal groups. While Bill Gaither remained the only original member of the ensemble, many well-regarded CCM/gospel singers have passed through the band’s ranks, including Russ Taff, Guy Penrod, Wes Hampton, Michael English, Mark Lowry, and David Phelps. Today, the Gaither Vocal Band roster is comprised of five power-packed voices, including Bill Gaither, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles and Reggie Smith.

God Of Our Fathers Lyrics

Song by Bill & Gloria Gaither

God of our fathers, whose almighty hand
Leads forth in beauty all the starry band
Of shining worlds in splendor through the skies
Our grateful songs before Thy throne arise

Thy love divine hath led us in the past
In this free land by thee our lot is cast
Be thou our Ruler, Guardian, Guide, and Stay
Thy word our law, Thy paths our chosen way

Refresh Thy people on their toilsome way
Lead us from night to never-ending day
Fill all our lives with love and grace divine
And glory, laud and praise be ever Thine

And glory, laud and praise be ever Thine
And praise be ever Thine
