BELLEVILLE
Lord, Thou Hast Promised Grace for Grace
Author: Samuel K. Cox, 1823-1909 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord, Thou hast promised grace for grace
To all who daily seek Thy face;
To them who have, Thou givest more
Out of Thy vast, exhaustless store.
2. Each step we take but gathers strength
For further progress, till at length,
With ease the highest steeps we gain,
And count the mountain but a plain.
3. Who watch, and pray, and work each hour
Receive new life and added power,
A power fresh victories to win
Over the world, and self, and sin.
4. Help us, O Lord, that we may grow
In grace as Thou dost grace bestow;
And still Thy richer gifts repeat
Till grace in glory is complete. Used With Tune: BELLEVILLE Text Sources: First published in the Baltimore and Richmond Christian Advocate
