There Is A Spot Of Consecrated Ground

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10486 Meter: 10.10.10.4 Lyrics: 1 There is a spot of consecrated ground, Where brightest hope and holiest joys are found: ’Tis named (and Christians love the well known sound) The throne of grace. 2 ’Tis here a calm retreat is always found: Perpetual sunshine gilds the sacred ground; Pure airs and heavenly odors breathe around The throne of grace. 3 While on this vantage ground the Christian stands, His quickened eye a boundless view commands; Discovers fair abodes not made with hands— Abodes of peace. 4 Terrestrial objects, disenchanted there, Lose all their power to dazzle or ensnare; One only object then seems worth our care— To win the race. 5 This is the mount where Christ’s disciples see The glory of the incarnate Deity; ’Tis here they find it good indeed to be, And view His face. 6 A new creation here begins to rise; Fruits of the Spirit, flowers of paradise, Watered from Heaven, in full and sure supplies, By streams of grace. 7 Towards this blest spot the Spirit bends His ear, The fervent prayer, the contrite sigh to hear; To bid the mourner banish every fear, And go in peace. 8 Here may the comfortless and weary find One who can cure the sickness of the mind; One who delights the broken heart to bind— The Prince of of Peace. 9 Savior! the sinner’s friend, our hope, our all! Here teach us humbly at Thy feet to fall; Here on Thy name, with love and faith to call For pardoning grace. 10 Ne’er let the glory from this spot remove, Till, numbered with Thy ransomed flock above, We cease to wait, but never cease to love The throne of grace.

There is a spot of consecrated ground

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: The New Sabbath School Hosanna #176a (1870) Lyrics: 1 There is a spot of consecrated ground, Where brightest hope and holiest joys are found: ’Tis named (and Christians love the well-known sound) The throne of grace. 2 ’Tis here a calm retreat is always found; Perpetual sunshine gilds the sacred ground; Pure airs and heavenly odors breathe around The throne of grace. 3 Saviour! the sinner's friend, our hope, or all! Here teach us humbly at thy feet to fall; Here on thy name with love and faith to call For pardoning grace. 4 Ne’er let the glory from this spot remove, Till, numbered with thy ransomed flock above, We cease to want, but never cease to love The throne of grace.
