lyrics

1.
Sons we are, through God's election,
Who in Jesus Christ believe:
By eternal destination
Sov'reign grace we here receive:
Lord, Thy mercy does both grace and glory give.

2.
Ev'ry fallen soul by sinning
Merits everlasting pain;
But Thy love, without beginning,
Has restored Thy sons again;
Countless millions shall in life through Jesus reign.

3.
Pause, my soul, adore and wonder,
Ask, oh, why such love to me?
Grace has put me in the number
Of the Saviour's family;
Hallelujah! Thanks, eternal thanks to Thee!

4.
Since that love had no beginning,
And shall never, never cease,
Keep, O keep me, Lord, from sinning,
Guide me in the way of peace!
Make me walk in all the paths of holiness.

5.
When I quit this feeble mansion,
And my soul returns to Thee,
Let the pow'r of Thy ascension
Manifest itself to me:
Through Thy Spirit give me final victory!

6.
When the angel sounds the trumpet
When my soul and body join;
When my Saviour comes to judgment,
Bright in majesty divine,
Let me triumph in Thy righteousness as mine.

7.
When in that blest habitation
Which my God has fore-ordained,
When, in glory's full possession
I with saints and angels stand,
"Free grace only," shall resound through Canaan's land.
