Grace, ‘tis a charming sound,
Harmonious to my ear;
Heaven with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear.
Saved by grace alone!
This is all my plea:
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
‘Twas grace that wrote my name
In life’s eternal book;
‘Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,
Who all my sorrows took.
Saved by grace alone!
This is all my plea:
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
Grace first contrived a way
To save rebellious man;
And all the steps that grace display
Which drew the wondrous plan.
Saved by grace alone!
This is all my plea:
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
Grace taught my wandering feet
To tread the heavenly road:
And new supplies each hour I meet,
While pressing on to God.
Saved by grace alone!
This is all my plea:
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
Grace all the work shall crown
Through everlasting days;
It lays in heaven the topmost stone,
And well deserves the praise.
Saved by grace alone!
This is all my plea:
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
Grace taught my soul to pray,
And made my eyes o’erflow;
‘Tis grace has kept me to this day,
And will not let me go.
Saved by grace alone!
This is all my plea:
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
Oh, let Thy grace inspire
My soul with strength Divine:
May all my powers to Thee aspire,
And all my days be Thine.
Saved by grace alone!
This is all my plea:
Jesus died for all mankind,
And Jesus died for me.
