5826. The River of Thy Grace

1. The river of Thy grace is flowing free,
We launch upon its depths to sail to Thee;
In the ocean of Thy love we soon shall be,
We are sailing to eternity.

Refrain
Earthly joys cannot compare with all the glory,
When our longing eyes shall see Thy face;
We shall have Thy fellowship forever,
In the splendor of the throne of grace.

2. The breezes of Thy love are blowing free,
They tell Thy love to all humanity;
They are singing of the blood of Calvary,
Making white through all eternity. [Refrain]

3. Thy Spirit calls to all, Come home today;
Come back and find the Savior while you may;
Find that Jesus is the life, the truth, the way,
Leading, guiding to eternity. [Refrain]
