Great Hymns of Grace



Grace Hymns

Grace has been a major theme of the Christian Church for

centuries. Christians have lived it, preached it, taught it, shared it, written it and sung it. Here are dozens of hymns about the Grace

of God from the past few centuries. We pray the words will

encourage and lift you up as you “look up” to see Jesus, The Author of Grace.

“And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for

grace. For the law was given through Moses, but grace and

truth came through Jesus Christ.” John 1:16-17


Grace for Every Need

“There is joy divine that is ever mine since the Lord has forgiven

me; and I work and sing for my blessed King, by His grace I have been made free. He will ever keep with the tempests sweep, And

hath grace for each trying hour; So I go in love to this Friend

above, Ever t rus t ing H is grace and pow’ r. O th is

wondrous grace is for all the race, It is boundless and full and free; And I trust and cling to my blessed King Who by grace now

i s k e e p i n g m e . T h e r e i s g r a c e f o r e a c h

need, Grace full, grace free, Saving grace yes, indeed, Flowing

from the throne above; Grace to hide all my sin, All, yes, grace free, Pardon all may win, Grace in His perfect love.”

J.M. Henson & Whitworth


Amazing Grace

“Amazing Grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now I’m found, was blind, but now I see.

Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears

relieved; How precious did that grace appear, the hour I first

believed. Thru many dangers, toils and snares, I have already come; Tis grace that brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead

me home. When we’ve been there ten thousand years, bright

shining as the sun; We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise, than

when we first begun.”

Newton & Walker


Saved By Grace

“Some day the silver cord will break, and I no more as now shall

sing; But, O the joy when I shall wake within the palace of the King! And I shall see Him face to face, and tell the story, Saved

by grace; and I shall see Him face to face, And tell the story,

Saved by grace.”

Crosby & Stebbins


More About Jesus

“More about Jesus I would know, more of His grace to others

show; More of His saving fullness see, more of His love, who died for me. More, more about Jesus, More, more about Jesus; More

of His saving fullness see, more of His love, who died for me.”

Hewitt & Sweney


His Blood is on My Soul

“I am determined by His grace to reach bright heaven’s goal, and

reign with Jesus on His throne, His blood is on my soul. His blood is on my soul, His blood is on my soul; I rest securely in His hand,

His blood is on my soul.”

Winsett


Lord Lead Me On

“When the way seems dark and long, as I pass amid the throng,

Hold to my hand, dear Lord I pray; Give me grace to shout and shine, ever in the light divine, Lord lead me on from day to day.

Lord lead me on, from day to day, I want to walk the holy way;

Tho friends forsake, me all alone, I ask Thee Lord to lead me on.”

Easterling


I’m Going That Way

“I’ve heard of a land of joy and peace and wonderful light, a

beautiful place of mansions fair and skies ever bright, Where all who believe the Savior dear, forever shall stay, and having been

saved by grace divine, I’m going that way. I’m going that way; I’m

going that way, and Jesus the Savior I adore is with me each day;

I’m clinging to Him, and never to stray, Yes, singing His praises all day long, I’m going that way.”

Rowe & Register


The Lord Is With Me

“I live in a land of sorrow while toiling in this earthly race, True joy

is awaiting yonder prepared for all the saved by grace; The Savior who bought my pardon has gone those mansions to prepare,

some happy day He will call me the glory of that home to share. I

know the Lord is with me each moment of the day, I know that He

will lead me, Tho dark may be the way; I know that in each trial, He travels on before, And in His love there’s safety, I could not

ask for more.”

Presley & Rippetoe


Sweet Hour of Prayer

“Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! That calls me from a

world of care, And bids me, at my Father’s throne, Make all my wants and wishes known; In seasons of distress and grief, my

soul has often found relief. Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of

prayer! Thy wings shall my petition bear, To Him whose truth and

righteousness, engage the waiting souls to bless; And since He bids me seek His face, believe His word and trust His grace.”

Walford & Bradbury


My Faith Looks Up to Thee

“My faith looks up to Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary, Savior divine;

Now hear me while I pray, Take all my sins away; O let me from this day be wholly Thine! May Thy rich grace impart Strength to

my fainting heart, My zeal inspire; As Thou hast died for me, O

may my love to Thee, Pure, warm and changeless be, A living

fire!”

Palmer & Mason


Wonderful Grace of Jesus

“Wonderful grace of Jesus, Greater than all my sin; How shall my

tongue describe it, Where shall its praise begin? Taking away my burden, Setting my spirit free; For the wonderful grace of Jesus

reaches me. Wonderful grace of Jesus, Reaching to all the lost;

By it I have been pardoned, Saved to the uttermost, Chains have

been torn asunder, Giving me liberty; For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me. Wonderful grace of Jesus, Reaching the most

defiled, By its transforming power, Making him God’s dear child,

Purchasing peace and heaven, For all eternity; And the

wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me. Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus, Deeper than the mighty rolling sea,

Higher than the mountain, sparkling like a fountain, All

sufficient grace for even me, Broader than the scope of my

transgressions, Greater far than all my sin and shame, O magnify the precious name of Jesus, Praise His name!”

Lillenas


Jesus, Lover of My Soul

“Plent’ous grace with Thee is found, Grace to cover all my sin; Let

the healing streams abound, Make and keep me pure within; Thou of life the fountain art, Freely let me take of Thee; Spring

Thou up within my heart, Rise to all eternity.”

Wesley & Marsh


Abide With Me

“I need Thy presence ev’ry passing hour, What but Thy grace can

foil the tempter’s pow’r? Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? Thru cloud and sunshine, O abide with me!”

Lyte & Monk


We’ll Soon Be Done With Troubles and Trials

“I shall behold His blessed face, I shall feel His matchless grace,

We’ll soon be done with troubles and trials; O what peace and joy sublime in that home of love divine, Sit down beside my Jesus, sit

down and rest a little while, We’ll soon be done with troubles and

trials, Yes, in that home on the other side, Shake glad hands with

the elders, tell my kindred good morning, Sit down beside my Jesus, gonna sit down and rest a li’l while. Gonna sit down and

rest a li’l while.”

Derricks


I’m Free Again

“Praise God I’m free, Free from ev’ry chain of sin, I’ve been set

free by the grace of God; I’m free, with a settled peace within, No more the paths of sin I trod, I’m free, Heaven’s gates I’ll enter in,

The blood has cleansed ev’ry sinful stain; I’m free, Praise the

living God, I’m free again, I’m free again.”

Ellis


Gettin’ Ready to Leave This World

“Trusting in the riches of His saving grace, In each earthly trial I

His love can trace; Sure that up in heaven I shall find a place, I’m a gettin’ ready to leave this world. Gettin’ ready to leave this world,

Gettin’ ready for the gates of pearl; Keeping watching, both day

and night, Gettin’ ready to leave this world.”

Presley


My Lord Will Care for Me

“I have assurance sweet, a solace most complete, And I go

onward singing His praise; My Lord is at my side as my unfailing guide, And He will keep me all of my days. He tells me that He’ll

care for me, No matter what may come along, He gives

me grace so rich and free, Within my heart He keeps a song; His

promise sweet still cheers me on, And safe with Him my soul will be, My sinful days are ever gone, My blessed Lord will care for

me.”

Henson & Whitworth


Jesus Paid It All

as snow.”

He Keeps Me Singing

“Feasting on the riches of His grace, Resting ‘neath His shelt’ring

wing, Always looking on His smiling face, That is why I shout and sing. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, sweetest name I know, Fills my ev’ry

longing, Keeps me signing as I go.”

Bridgers


I’ll Be Satisfied

satisfied; Praising Christ the Savior for redeeming grace and love, I’ll be satisfied. I’ll be satisfied, satisfied, I’ll be satisfied, satisfied;

When my soul is resting in the presence of the Lord, I’ll be

satisfied.”

Pannell & Pannell


At Calvary

“O the love that drew salvation’s plan! O the grace that brought it

down to man! O the mighty gulf that God did span at Calvary! Mercy there was great, and grace was free; Pardon there was

multiplied to me; There my burdened soul found libery at Calvary.”

Newell & Towner

glory-land.”

Rowe & Dean


A New Name In Glory

“In the book ’tis written, ‘Saved by grace;’ O the joy that came to

my soul! Now I am forgiven, and I know, By the blood I am made whole. There’s a new name written down in glory, And it’s mine, O

yes, it’s mine! And the white-robed angels sing the story, ‘A sinner

has come home;’ For there’s a new name written down in glory,

And it’s mine, O yes, it’s mine! With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven, Never more to roam.”

saving grace (saving grace); When earthlife is o’er, then, forever more, I’ll look on His smiling face. All glory to Him I bring! With

gladness to Him I cling, With this wonderful song I sing.”

Sebren


Mansions In Heaven

“Those mansions above, I’ll see them some day, If found in the

soul-saving grace; I’m looking for one at the end of the way, When I’ll see the Builder and talk face to face. I am going over there, To

a mansion bright and fair; With my Savior I’ll be there, And His

glory I will share.”

Graham


Leave Your Sorrows and Come Along

“Nothing could cause us to turn back in the race, Because we’re

bound for regions of everlasting song and story, Jesus abundantly supplies us with grace, Leave your sorrows, come and go along.

Why should we be sad, children of God and sad? O let us lift our

grateful voices in glad jubilee, O be glad for things are not so bad,

leave your sorrows, come along and go with me.”

Parris & Wright


Joy Unspeakable

smiling face. It is joy unspeakable and full of glory, Full of glory,

full of glory; It is joy unspeakable and full of glory, Oh, the half has never yet been told.”

Are You Washed in the Blood?

“Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing pow’r? Are you

washed in the blood of the Lamb? Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Lamb? Are your garments spotless? are they white as snow? Are

you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

and now! All the way to glory, I shall tell my story, Jesus keeps me

happy, for He knows how.”

The Love of God

“When hoary time shall pass away, and earthly thrones and

kingdoms fall; When men who here refuse to pray, On rocks and hills and mountains call; God’s love, so sure, shall still endure, all

saints’ and angels’ song. O love of God, how rich and pure! How

measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure, The saints’ and angels’ song.”

Lehman


Christ Receiveth Sinful Men

precious holy Word.”

Hallelujah Side

“Not for all earth’s golden millions would I leave this precious

place, Tho’ the tempter to persuade me oft has tried, For I’m safe in God’s pavilion, happy in His love and grace, And I’m living on

the hallelujah side. Oh, glory be to Jesus, let the hallelujahs roll;

Help me ring the Savior praises far and wide, For I’ve opened up

tow’rd heaven all the windows of my soul, And I’m living on the hallelujah side.”

Oatman & Entwisie


Just Because He Loved Me So

was pure and holy, and His grace was full and free; He calls for me to follow, I will walk with Him below, He will never, never leave

me, just because He loved me so. He loved me so, He loved me

so; He gave His life a ransom, Just because He loved me so.”

glory, He’s my light and gladness, Ev’ry moment of the day.”

My Burdens Rolled Away

for years, night and day; As I sought the throne of grace, just a glimpse of Jesus’ face, And I knew that my burdens could not

stay. Rolled away, rolled away, I am happy since my burdens

rolled away; Rolled away, rolled away, I am happy since my

burdens rolled away.”

the way, Keeping courage strong, Knowing that we shall reach home by His grace sublime, When we are all gathered there,

What a happy time. What a happy time ’twill be when we all get

home, Over by the crystal sea, Nevermore to roam; In that

homeland of the soul, Where the joybells chime, Singing while the ages roll, What a happy time.”

happy day, yes, a glorious day; There with all the holy angels and

loved ones to stay, That will be a glad reunion day.”

the sky. I shall know Him, I shall know Him, And redeemed by His

side I shall stand, I shall know Him, I shall know Him by the print

of the nails in His hand.”

Sin can never enter there; so, if at the judgment bar, Sinful spots

your soul shall mar, You can never enter there.”

Naylor & Warren


Don’t Turn Him Away

“Gracious, compassionate mercy brought Him from mansions

above; Caused Him to wait just outside your gate, O yield to His wonderful love. Don’t turn Him away, Don’t turn Him away, He has

you’ll need Him to plead your cause On that eternal day! Don’t

prayers of those I love.”

in to abide.”

that day.'”

to blame, Have you no hopes for tomorrow? Sin is to blame for it

all.”

die for me, Because He loves me so.”

the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer

blessed Lord, To Thy precious, bleeding side.”

me by.”
