Verse 1: Grace! ’tis a charming sound, Harmonious to the ear; Heav'n with the echo shall resound, And all the earth shall hear. Verse 2: 'Twas grace that wrote my name In life's eternal book; 'Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb, Who all my sorrows took. Verse 3: Grace taught my wandering feet To tread the pilgrim road; And new supplies each hour I meet While pressing on to God. Verse 4: Grace taught my heart to pray, And made my eyes o'erflow; ’Tis grace which kept me to this day, And will not let me go. Verse 5: Grace all the work shall crown Through everlasting days; It lays in love the topmost stone, And well deserves the praise. Verse 6: Oh, let that grace inspire My heart with strength divine; May all my powers to Thee aspire, And all my days be Thine.
