This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  Grace! 'Tis a charming sound.

       Harmonious to the ear;

    Heav'n with the echo shall resound,

       And all the earth shall hear.

 

All sufficient grace!

   Never powerless!

It is Christ who lives in me,

   In His exhaustlessness.

 

 2  'Twas grace that wrote my name

       In life's eternal book;

    'Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,

       Who all my sorrows took.

 

All sufficient grace!

   Never powerless!

It is Christ who lives in me,

   In His exhaustlessness.

 

 3  Grace taught my wandering feet

       To tread the pilgrim road;

    And new supplies each hour I meet

       While pressing on to God.

 

All sufficient grace!

   Never powerless!

It is Christ who lives in me,

   In His exhaustlessness.

 

 4  Grace taught my heart to pray,

       And made my eyes o'erflow;

    'Tis grace which kept me to this day,

       And will not let me go.

 

All sufficient grace!

   Never powerless!

It is Christ who lives in me,

   In His exhaustlessness.

 

 5  Grace all the work shall crown

       Through everlasting days;

    It lays in love the topmost stone,

       And well deserves the praise.

 

All sufficient grace!

   Never powerless!

It is Christ who lives in me,

   In His exhaustlessness.

 

 6  Oh, let that grace inspire

       My heart with strength divine;

    May all my powers to Thee aspire,

       And all my days be Thine.

 

All sufficient grace!

   Never powerless!

It is Christ who lives in me,

   In His exhaustlessness.
