| Text: | Oh, what amazing words of grace |
| Author: | Samuel Medley |
1. Oh, what amazing words of grace
Are in the gospel found!
Suited to every sinner’s case
Who knows the joyful sound.
2. Here Jesus calls—and he’s a true,
A kind, a faithful friend;
He’s Alpha and Omega, too,
Beginning and the End.
3. Come, then, with all your wants and woes,
Your every burden bring;
Here, love, eternal love, abounds—
A deep, celestial spring.
4. Whoever thirsts—oh gracious word!—
Shall of this stream partake;
Come, thirsty souls, and bless the Lord,
And drink for Jesus’ sake.
5. This spring with living water flows,
And living joy imparts;
Come, thirsty souls, your wants disclose,
And drink with thankful hearts.
6. To sinners poor, like me and you,
He says he’ll freely give;
Come, thirsty souls, and prove it true;
Drink, and forever live.
