1 Marvelous grace of our loving Lord,
grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt,
yonder on Calvary's mount outpoured,
there where the blood of the Lamb was spilt.
[Refrain:]
Grace, grace, God's grace,
grace that will pardon and cleanse within;
grace, grace, God's grace,
grace that is greater than all our sin.
2 Dark is the stain that we cannot hide.
what can avail to wash it away?
Look! there is flowing a crimson tide;
whiter than snow you may be today. (Refrain)
3 Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,
freely bestowed on all who believe;
you that are longing to see his face,
will you this moment his grace receive? (Refrain)
