206. Salvation is of Grace

1 How sovereign is the love of God
To Israel’s favoured race!
Paid is the mighty debt they owed;
Salvation is of grace.

2 His love, without beginning, knew
Each chosen sinner’s case;
And sent his equal Son to show
Salvation is of grace.

3 Immanuel had not bled and died,
Nor suffered in our place,
But for this truth (O sound it wide!),
Salvation is of grace.

4 We had not known and loved the Son,
Nor sung his worthy praise,
But that himself the work begun;
Salvation is of grace.
