Hymn

ENGLISH LYRICS: Grace! tis a charming  sound

1.  Grace ! 'tis a charming sound,
      Harmonious to the 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.

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 heavenly road ;
     And new supplies each hour I meet,
     While pressing on to God.
 
4.  Grace taught my soul to pray,
     And made mine eyes o'erflow ;
     'Twas grace which kept me to this day,
    And will not let me go.

5.  Oh, let Thy grace inspire
     My soul with strength divine I
     May all my powers to Thee aspire,
     And all my days be Thine.
