Distinguishing Grace

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CX (1792) Publication Date: 1792 Scripture: Jeremiah 31:3 First Line: In songs of sublime adoration and praise Lyrics: 1 In songs of sublime adoration and praise, Ye pilgrims for Sion who press, Break forth, and extol the great ancient of days, His rich and distinguishing grace. 2 His love from eternity fix'd upon you, Broke forth and discover'd its flame, And now with the cords of his kindness he draws, And brings us to love his great name. 3 O had he not pitied the state you were in, Your bosoms his love had ne'er felt, You all would have liv'd, would have dy'd too in sin And sunk with the load of our guilt. 4 What was there in man that could merit esteem, Or give the Creator delight? 'Twas "even so, Father," you ever must sing, "Because it seem'd good in thy sight." 5 'Twas all of thy grace we were bro't to obey While others were suffer'd to go, The road which by nature we chose as our way, Which leads to the regions of woe. 6 Then give all the glory to his holy name; To him all the glory belongs; Be yours the high joys still to sound forth his fame, And crown him in each of your songs.

Sinners, hear and sing his praise! 'Tis the God that holds the thunder Shows himself the God of grace!
