IF GOD BEGINS HIS WORK OF GRACE
Don Fortner
(Tune:
There Is A Fountain #222 CM)
If God begins His work of grace
In any
sinner's heart,
That
sinner He will keep secure -
From
Christ he can't depart.
The objects of eternal love
Shall persevere, I know
Chosen,
redeemed, and called by grace,
God
will not let them go.
Frustrated,
grace can never be:
Christ
did not die in vain!
All
those for whom He shed His blood
Eternal
life must gain!
Who can
condemn the blood-bought soul,
Or
charge God's own with sin?
In
Christ we're freely justified.
With
Him we'll ever reign!
Grace
shall complete what grace began -
All
glory to the Lord!
Eternally
we'll shout His praise -
"Salvation's of the Lord!"
