1 Timothy 1:14 And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
When grace came, it brought with it “faith and love.”
When the Lord saved Paul, he was able to believe that which he had formerly denied.
It allowed him to love a Lord and a people he had formerly hated.
That’s what God’s grace in salvation will do for you. It will cause you to love things you have always hated.
Salvation will change your life completely, totally and eternally, 2 Cor. 5:17.)
Wonderful Grace of Jesus
________________________
Wonderful grace of Jesus, — Greater than all my sin; — How shall my tongue describe it, — Where shall its praise begin? — Taking away my burden, — Setting my spirit free; — For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.
CHORUS:
Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus, — Deeper than the mighty rolling sea; — Higher than the mountain, sparkling like a fountain, — All sufficient grace for even me! — Broader than the scope of my transgressions, — Greater far than all my sin and shame; — Oh, magnify the precious Name of Jesus, — Praise His Name!
Wonderful grace of Jesus, — Reaching to all the lost, — By it I have been pardoned, — Saved to the uttermost; — Chains have been torn asunder, — Giving me liberty; — For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me. - - -
Wonderful grace of Jesus, — Reaching the most defiled, — By its transforming power, — Making him God’s dear child, — Purchasing peace and heaven — For all eternity — For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me. - - -
