Alexander's Gospel Songs No. 2 ‎#22

22. Pardon, Peace and Power

1 Would we be joyful in the Lord?
Thee count the riches o’er,
Revealed to faith within His Word,
And note the boundless store.

Refrain:
There is pardon, peace, and pow’r.
And purity and Paradise;
With all of these in Christ for me,
Let joyful songs of praise to Him arise!

2 For every sin, by grace divine,
A pardon free bestowed;
And with the pardon peace is mine,
The peace in Jesus’ blood. [Refrain]

3 Of grace to break the pow’r of sin;
He gives a full supply;
The Holy Ghost, the heart within,
From sin doth purify. [Refrain]

4 The power to win a soul to God,
The Spirit too imparts;
And He, the gift of Christ our Lord,
Dwells now in all our hearts. [Refrain]

5 These blessings we by faith receive,
By simple child-like trust;
In Christ, ‘tis God’s delight to give:
He promised, and He must. [Refrain]
