Hymn

All-sufficiency of His grace

Metre 8.8.8.8.

Ho! every one that thirsts, draw nigh;

Tis God invites the fallen race;

Mercy and free salvation buy;

Buy wine, and milk, and gospel grace.

Come to the living waters, come!

Sinners, obey your Maker's call;

Return, ye weary wanderers, home,

And find My grace is free for all.

See from the Rock a fountain rise!

For you in healing streams it rolls;

Money ye need not bring, nor price,

Ye laboring, burdened, sin-sick souls.

Nothing ye in exchange shall give,

Leave all you have and are behind;

Frankly the gift of God receive,

Pardon and peace in Jesus find.
