1. Grace has a thrilling sound  
To each believer’s ear;  
That peace with God through Christ is found  
Is news I gladly hear.  
Grace first devised the way  
To save our fallen race;  
The Father sent His only Son  
Who came to take our place. 
 
2. Grace first inscribed my name  
In God’s eternal book,  
And grace has brought me to the Lamb,  
Who all my sorrows took.  
Grace led my wand’ring feet  
To tread the heav’nly road,  
And grace supplies each hour I meet  
While pressing on to God.
