Salvation by grace in ChristA
-
TimB
-
Now to the power of God supremeC
Be everlasting honors giv'nD
He saves from hell we bless his nameE
He calls our wand'ring feet to heav'nD
-
Not for our duties or desertsF
But of his own abounding graceG
He works salvation in our heartsH
And forms a people for his praiseI
-
'Twas his own purpose that begunD
To rescue rebels doomed to dieJ
He gave us grace in Christ his SonD
Before he spread the starry skyJ
-
Jesus the Lord appears at lastK
And makes his Father's counsels knownD
Declares the great transactions pastK
And brings immortal blessings downD
-
He dies and in that dreadful nightL
Did all the powers of hell destroyM
Rising he brought our heav'n to lightL
And took possession of the joyM
