Grace! 'Tis a Charming Sound

Philip Doddridge (1740) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 93

Verse 1

Grace! 'tis a charming sound Harmonious to my ear; Heaven with the echo shall resound, And all the earth shall hear.

Verse 2

Grace first contrived the way To save rebellious man; And all the steps that grace display Which drew the wondrous plan.

Grace taught my wandering feet To tread the heavenly road; And new supplies each hour I meet, While pressing on to God.

Grace all the works shall crown, Through everlasting days; It lays in heaven the topmost stone, And well deserves the praise.
