Great God of wonders! All thy ways
Display the attributes divine;
But countless acts of pardoning grace
Beyond thine other wonders shine:
Who is a pardoning God like thee?
Or who has grace so rich and free?

In wonder lost, with trembling joy
We take the pardon of our God -
Pardon for crimes of deepest dye,
A pardon bought with Jesus' blood:
Who is a pardoning God like thee?
Or who has grace so rich and free?

Pardon - from an offended God!
Pardon - for sins of deepest dye!
Pardon - bestowed through Jesus' blood!
Pardon - that brings the rebel nigh!
Who is a pardoning God like thee?
Or who has grace so rich and free?

0 may this strange, this matchless grace,
This God-like miracle of love,
Fill the wide earth with grateful praise,
As now it fills the choirs above!
Who is a pardoning God like thee?
Or who has grace so rich and free?


Samuel Davies (1723-61)
