Thomas Clark - Grace, 'tis a charming sound - текст песни (слова)

Grace, 'tis a charming sound,
 Harmonious to mine 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 first inscribed my name
 In God's eternal book;
 'Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,
 Who all my sorrows took.
 
 Grace led my roving feet
 To tread the heavenly road;
 And new supplies each hour I meet,
 While pressing on to God.
 
 Grace taught my soul to pray
 And made mine eyes o'erflow;
 'Twas grace which kept me to this day,
 And will not let me go.
 
 Grace all the work shall crown,
 Through everlasting days;
 It lays in heaven the topmost stone,
 And well deserves the praise.
 
 O let Thy grace inspire
 My soul with strength divine
 My all my powers to Thee aspire,
 And all my days be Thine.
