[Grace! 'tis a charming sound]
1
Grace! 'tis a charming sound:Harmonious to the ear!
Heav'n with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear.
2
Grace first contrived the wayTo save rebellious man;
And all the steps that grace display,
Which drew the wondrous plan.
3
Grace first inscribed my nameIn God's eternal book;
'Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,
Who all my sorrows took.
4
Grace led my roving feetTo tread the heavenly road;
And new supplies each hour I meet,
While pressing on to God.
5
Grace taught my soul to pray,And made my eyes o'erflow;
'Twas grace that kept me to this day,
And will not let me go.
6
Grace all the work shall crown,Through everlasting days;
It lays in heaven the topmost stone.
And well deserves the praise
