Representative Text

1 I'm in the path of peace where pleasures never cease,
And where my soul delights to be;
All worldly loss is gain,—with Jesus I remain,
For saving grace is keeping me.

Refrain:
His grace is keeping me,
His grace is keeping me;
All glory to His name,
His grace is keeping me.

2 I lean upon His arm, He shields from every harm;
Sweet songs I sing because I'm free!
His glory lights the way to everlasting day,
Praise God, His grace is keeping me. [Refrain]

3 I know that I shall sing hosanna to my
King When I His blessed face shall see;
I'll dwell forevermore on that eternal shore
With Him whose grace is keeping me. [Refrain]
