CLE-8 Lesson 11
CLE-8 Lesson 11
Grace comes into the soul, as the morning sun into the world; first a dawning,
then a light; and at last the sun in his full and excellent brightness.
Grant us grace,
O Father, to address
you with our hearts
as well as our lips;
to find you
in strange places
as well as the expected;
and to wait for you
in the secret sigh
as much as in the
song of praise. Amen.
Jane Austen (1775 -1817)
Grace, grace, God’s grace,
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within;
Grace, grace, God’s grace,
Grace that is greater than all our sin!
Sin and despair, like the sea waves cold,
Threaten the soul with infinite loss;
Grace that is greater, yes, grace untold,
Points to the refuge,
the mighty cross.
Julia H Johnston (1849-1919)
