312--Grace! 'tis a charming sound.

Grace! 'tis a charming sound.

312

	1.	Grace! 'tis a charming sound.
		Harmonious to the ear;
		Heav'n with the echo shall resound,
		And all the earth shall hear.
		All sufficient grace!
		Never powerless!
		it is Christ who lives in me,
		In His exhaustlessness.
	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.
	3.	Grace taught my wandering feet
		To tread the pilgrim road;
		And new supplies each hour I meet
		While pressing on to God.
	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.
	1.	Grace all the work shall crown
		Through everlasting days;
		It lays in love the topmost stone,
		And well deserves the praise.
	6.	Oh, let that grace inspire
		My heart with strength divine;
		May all my powers to Thee aspire,
		And all my days be Thine.
