Oh, Grace,
Thou wholly transforming power
That offers entrance to God’s presence,
But dost not leave us in our
State of basic unworthiness,
In thy holy goodness,
Thou truly art amazing!
Thou art all of Who God is
In one great act of glory,
Offering the path of peace
By an exchange of selfish desires
For selfless, humble gratitude.
In all that you give—
Thy blood-bought atonement
Covering all our inborn sin nature—
Thou yet demandest willing sacrifice,
Simultaneously giving us strength
To lay all aside and trust Thee
In complete surrender.
Thou art the Breath of God
Breathing new life through us!
Oh, Grace,
Thou Spirit of holiness in us,
Let us recognize, once more,
All of Who you are—
Awesome, glorious God of wonder!
