The Grace and Glory That Is Thee

THE GRACE AND GLORY THAT IS THEE

Chosen, redeemed how could it be

Your love reached out and rescued me

From sin’s dark chains I’ve been set free

My heart now whole and filled with glee

 

Oh Lord I cannot understand

All that you have for me now planned

It is upon your love I stand

And journey through this broken land

 

Your Love Divine, I hold so dear

Your voice alone I long to hear

Your words so precious to my ear

Your hope your joy is ever near

 

No other love could mean so much

As your sweet voice and gentle touch

All other loves pour forth as such

Because your love I first do clutch

 

Your love in me doth so compel

To all the world, I must now tell

As praise for you within doth swell

And Thus, Sing forth a great noel

 

Oh, Lord, I ask of thee this plea

To void my heart of all that’s me

So that the world might only see

The Grace and Glory that is thee
