9927. Grace, The Fountain Of All Good

1 Grace, the fountain of all good,
Ye happy saints, receive,
With the streams of peace overflowèd
With all that God can give;
He who is, and was, in peace
And grace, and plenitude of power,
Come your favored souls to bless,
And never leave you more!

2 Let the Spirit before His throne
Mysterious one and seven,
In His various gifts sent down,
Be to the churches given;
Let the pure seraphic joy
From Jesus Christ the Just descend,
Holiness without alloy,
And bliss which ne’er shall end.
