LyicsGrace! 't is a charming sound,
Harmonious to the ear;
Heav'n with the echo shall resound
And all the earth shall hear.
Grace first contriv'd the way
To save rebellious man;
And all the steps that grace display,
Which drew the wondrous plan.
Grace led our wand'ring feet,
To tread the heav'nly road;
And new supplies each hour we meet,
While pressing on to God.
Grace all the work shall crown
Through everlasting days;
It lays in heav'n the topmost stone,
And well deserves our praise.
