1 Every fallen soul, by sinning,
Merits everlasting pain;
But thy love without beginning,
Has redeemed the world again.
Countless millions
Shall in life, through Jesus reign.
2 Pause, my soul, adore and wonder!
Ask, "O why such love to me?"
Grace hath put me in the number
Of the Saviour's family:
Hallelujah!
Thanks, eternal thanks to thee!
3 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.
4 When I quit this feeble mansion,
And my soul returns to thee;
Let the power of thy ascension
Manifest itself in me;
Through thy Spirit,
Give the final victory!
5 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 righeousness as mine.
