Original tune: The First Lord’s Day (Spingbrook); William N. McElrath, 1932-
1 Peter 2:9,10. Rom. 8: 20-25. Rev. 21
Christ called me out of dark despair; the law exposed my shame.
But bursting through the darkness his light of grace overcame.
How merciful did grace abound! That broke the curse, my chains.
For Christ has won my right to live, His Sovereign freedom reigns.
Love bore the sin of Adam’s race, creation groans in pain.
But soon its vindication comes, the last of sin’s domain.
How merciful did grace abound! That broke the curse, my chains.
For Christ has won my right to live, His Sovereign freedom reigns.
A shout will call from pole to pole, His sheep will gather near.
And for eternity we’ll praise, our faith will be made clear.
How merciful did grace abound! That broke the curse, my chains.
For Christ has won my right to live, His Sovereign freedom reigns.
A new heaven and earth will be our home of endless joy
For Christ who calls us out of death, our lives he will employ.
How merciful did grace abound! That broke the curse, my chains.
For Christ has won my right to live, His Sovereign freedom reigns.
