Hymn
This Is Grace
Words: Habershon, Ada R. (Ada Ruth), 1861-1918
The favor that could ne’er be bought, The goodness that was all unsought, The sacrifice beyond all thought, This is grace, His wondrous grace.
Refrain
Grace flowing for me, Grace flowing so free, O wonderful grace, Flowing from Calvary.
The mercy which is undeserved, The love which stoop’d to earth, and serv’d, The loving kindness still reserved, This is grace, His wondrous grace. [Refrain]
The burning love that t’ward us glow’d, The bounty lavishly bestowed, The stream which from Mount Calv’ry flow’d, This is grace, His wondrous grace. [Refrain]
The tenderness that mov’d His heart, And led him from His all to part, The daily strength He doth impart, This is grace, His wondrous grace. [Refrain]
The love like sun’s converging rays, That sets my poor cold love ablaze, That ever will my heart amaze, This is grace, His wondrous grace. [Refrain]
