Lyics

LORD, at thy table we behold
The wonders of thy grace;
But, most of all, admire that we
Should find a welcome place.


What strange, surprising grace is this,
That we, so lost, have room?
Jesus our weary souls invites,
And freely bids us come!


Ye saints below, and hosts of heaven,
Join all your sacred powers:
No theme is like redeeming love;
No Saviour is like ours.
