By the Living Grace of God

Representative Text

1 By the living grace of God
I will labor, watch, and pray,
Till this mortal life shall end
In supernal day.

Refrain:
Work on, toil on,
Till my work on earth is done;
By the living grace of God
I will labor on.

2 By the living grace of God
I’ll defy the tempting throng;
High above the battle’s din,
Shout the victor’s song. [Refrain]

3 By the living grace of God
I will never doubt my Lord;
Till my eyes are closed in death,
I’ll believe His word. [Refrain]

4 By the living grace of God
I will conquer, though I die;
The reward will come at last,
In my home on high. [Refrain]
