2 Lord, now indeed I find
  Thy power, and thine alone,
Can change the leper’s spots,
  And melt the heart of stone.

3 For nothing good have I
  Whereby thy grace to claim—­
I’ll wash my garment white
  In the blood of Calvary’s Lamb.

4 When from my dying bed
  My ransomed soul shall rise,
Then “Jesus paid it all”
  Shall rend the vaulted skies.

5 And when before the throne
  I stand in him complete,
I’ll lay my trophies down,
  All down at Jesus’ feet.

     Mrs. Elvina M. Hall.

198 All to Christ I Owe. 6s.

Rev. 22:17. (479)

Come to the blood-stained tree;
  The Victim bleeding lies;
God sets the sinner free,
  Since Christ, a ransom, dies.

2 The Spirit will apply
  His blood to cleanse thy stain;
Oh, burdened soul, draw nigh,
  For none can come in vain!

3 Dark though thy guilt appear,
  And deep its crimson stain,
There’s boundless mercy here,
  Oh, do not still disdain.

4 Look not within for peace,
  Within, there’s nought to cheer;
Look up, and find release
  From sin, and self, and fear.

199 What a Wonderful Savior.  P.M.

A Complete Atonement.

Christ has for sin atonement made,
  What a wonderful Savior! 
We are redeem’d, the price is paid,
  What a wonderful Savior!

Cho.—­What a wonderful Savior is Jesus, my Jesus! 
      What a wonderful Savior is Jesus, my Lord!

2 I praise him for the cleansing blood,
  What a wonderful Savior! 
That reconciled my soul to God,
  What a wonderful Savior!

3 He cleansed my heart from all its sin,
  What a wonderful Savior! 
And now he reigns and rules therein,
  What a wonderful Savior!

4 He walks beside me in the way,
  What a wonderful Savior! 
And keeps me faithful day by day,
  What a wonderful Savior!

5 He gives me overcoming power,
  What a wonderful Savior! 
And triumph in each conflict hour,
  What a wonderful Savior!

6 To him I’ve given all my heart,
  What a wonderful Savior! 
The world shall never share a part,
  What a wonderful Savior!

     E. A. Hoffman.

200 Wonderful Grace.  P.M.

Divine Grace.

’Tis grace, ’tis grace, ’tis wonderful grace,
  This great salvation brings;
The soul, delivered of its load,
  In sweetest rapture sings.

Cho.—­’Tis grace, ’tis grace,
      Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful grace,
      ’Tis grace, ’tis grace,
      Flowing still freely for me.

2 ’Tis grace, ’tis grace, ’tis wonderful grace,
  Which saves the soul from sin,
The power of rising evil days,
  And reigns supreme within.

3 ’Tis grace, ’tis grace, ’tis wonderful grace;
  Its streams are full and free;
Are flowing now for all the race,
  They even flow to me.
