Grace first and last in Salvation.
1Grace! 'tis a charming sound!
Harmonious to the ear!
Heaven with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear.
2Grace first contrived the way
To save rebellious man;
And all the steps that grace display
Which drew the wondrous plan.
3Grace led my roving feet
To tread the heavenly road;
And new supplies each hour I meet
While pressing on to God.
4Grace 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.
5Grace all the work shall crown,
Through everlasting days;
It lays in heaven the topmost stone,
And well deserves the praise.
