How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found: was blind, but now I see. 2 'Twas grace first taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved; how precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed! 3 The Lord has promised good to me, his word my hope secures; he will my shield and portion be as long as life endures. 4 Through many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come; 'tis grace that brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home. 5 When we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun, we've no less days to sing God's praise than when we'd first begun.

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 74 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 119 First Line: Father, I bless thy gentle hand Lyrics: Father, I bless thy gentle hand; How kind was thy chastising rod, That forced my conscience to a stand, And brought my wand'ring soul to God! Foolish and vain, I went astray Ere I had felt thy scourges, Lord; I left my guide, and lost my way; But now I love and keep thy word. 'Tis good for me to wear the yoke, For pride is apt to rise and swell; 'Tis good to bear my Father's stroke, That I might learn his statutes well. The law that issues from thy mouth Shall raise my cheerful passions more Than all the treasures of the south, Or western hills of golden ore. Thy hands have made my mortal frame, Thy Spirit formed my soul within; Teach me to know thy wondrous name, And guard me safe from death and sin. Then all that love and fear the Lord At my salvation shall rejoice; For I have hoped in thy word, And made thy grace my only choice.

Be thou a surety, Lord, for me, Nor let the proud oppress; But make thy waiting servant see The shinings of thy face.
