Hymn
O what amazing words of grace
Words: Medley, Samuel, 1738-1799
O what amazing words of grace Are in the gospel found! Suited to ev'ry sinner’s case, Who know the joyful sound.
Poor, sinful, thirsty, fainting souls Are freely welcome here; Salvation, like a river, rolls, Abundant, free, and clear.
Come then, with all your wants and wounds, Your ev'ry burden bring! Here love, unchanging love, abounds, A deep, celestial spring!
Whoever will, (O gracious word!) Shall of this stream partake; Come thirsty souls and bless the Lord, And drink for Jesus' sake!
Millions of sinners, vile as you, Have here found life and peace; Come, then, and prove its virtues too, And drink, adore, and bless.
