Lyics

Grace! 'tis a charming sound,

Harmonious to the 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 led our wandering feet

To tread the heavenly 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 heaven the topmost stone,

And well deserves our praise.
