The Pardoning God

Author: President Davis Appears in 107 hymnals First Line: Great God of wonders all thy ways Lyrics: 1 Great God of wonders all thy ways, Are matchless, Godlike, and divine; But thy fair glories of thy grace, More Godlike and unrival'd shine, Who is a pardoning God like thee? Or who has grace so rich and free? 2 Crimes of such horror to forgive, Such guilty daring worms to spare, This is thy grand prerogative, And none shall in the honour share. Who is a pardoning God like thee? Or who has grace so rich and free? 3 Angels and men, resign your claim, To pity, mercy, love, and grace; These glories crown Jehovah's name, With an incomparable blaze. Who is a pardoning God like thee? Or who has grace so rich and free? 4 In wonder lost with trembling joy, We take the pardon of our God, Pardon for crimes of deepest dye, A pardon bought with Jesus' blood. Who is a pardoning God like thee? Or who has grace so rich and free? 5 O may this strange, this matchless grace, This God like miracle of love, Fill the wide earth with grateful praise, And all the Angelic Hosts above, Who is a pardoning God like thee? Or who has grace so rich and free?
