Grace, ’tis a charming sound, | <poem> | ||
Harmonious to mine ear; | Grace, ’tis a charming sound, | ||
Heaven with the echo shall resound, | Harmonious to mine ear; | ||
And all the earth shall hear. | Heaven with the echo shall resound, | ||
And all the earth shall hear. | |||
Grace first contrived the way | |||
To save rebellious man; | Grace first contrived the way | ||
And all the steps that grace display | To save rebellious man; | ||
Which drew the wondrous plan. | And all the steps that grace display | ||
Which drew the wondrous plan. | |||
Grace first inscribed my name | |||
In God’s eternal book; | Grace first inscribed my name | ||
’Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb, | In God’s eternal book; | ||
Who all my sorrows took. | ’Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb, | ||
Who all my sorrows took. | |||
Grace led my roving feet | |||
To tread the heavenly road; | Grace led my roving feet | ||
And new supplies each hour I meet, | To tread the heavenly road; | ||
While pressing on to God. | And new supplies each hour I meet, | ||
While pressing on to God. | |||
Grace taught my soul to pray | |||
And made mine eyes o’erflow; | Grace taught my soul to pray | ||
’Twas grace which kept me to this day, | And made mine eyes o’erflow; | ||
And will not let me go. | ’Twas grace which kept me to this day, | ||
And will not let me go. | |||
Grace all the work shall crown, | |||
Through everlasting days; | Grace all the work shall crown, | ||
It lays in heaven the topmost stone, | Through everlasting days; | ||
And well deserves the praise. | It lays in heaven the topmost stone, | ||
And well deserves the praise. | |||
O let Thy grace inspire | |||
My soul with strength divine | O let Thy grace inspire | ||
My all my powers to Thee aspire, | My soul with strength divine | ||
And all my days be Thine.< | My all my powers to Thee aspire, | ||
And all my days be Thine. | |||

Grace, ’tis a charming sound,
Harmonious to mine ear;
Heaven with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear.
Grace first contrived the way
To save rebellious man;
And all the steps that grace display
Which drew the wondrous plan.
Grace first inscribed my name
In God’s eternal book;
’Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,
Who all my sorrows took.
Grace led my roving feet
To tread the heavenly road;
And new supplies each hour I meet,
While pressing on to God.
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.
Grace all the work shall crown,
Through everlasting days;
It lays in heaven the topmost stone,
And well deserves the praise.
O let Thy grace inspire
My soul with strength divine
My all my powers to Thee aspire,
And all my days be Thine.
