Till we with saints in glad accord Sing "Holy, holy is the Lord"! And in the light of heaven above Shall see thy face and know thy love. 4.

The Gospel shows the Father's grace

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Matching Instances: 7 Lyrics: 1 The Gospel shows the Father's grace, Who sent His Son to save our race: Proclaims how Jesus lived and died That man might thus be justified. 2 It sets the Lamb before our eyes Who made th'atoning sacrifice, And calls the souls with guilt oppressed To come and find eternal rest. 3 It brings the Saviour's righteousness Our souls to robe in royal dress; From all our guilt it brings release, And gives the troubled conscience peace. 4 It is the power of God to save From sin and Satan and the grave; It works the faith which firmly clings To all the treasures which it brings. 5 It bears to all the tidings glad, And bids their hearts no more be sad: The heavy laden souls it cheers, And banishes their guilty fears. 6 May we in faith its tidings learn, Nor thanklessly its blessings spurn; May we in faith its truth confess, And praise the Lord our righteousness.
