<p>Behold the throne of grace,<br>
The promise calls us near,<br>
There Jesus shows a smiling face<br>
And waits to answer prayer.</p>
<p>That rich atoning blood,<br>
Which sprinkled round we see,<br>
Provides for those who come to God<br>
An all prevailing plea.</p>
<p>My soul ask what thou wilt,<br>
Thou canst not be too bold;<br>
Since His own blood for thee He spilt,<br>
What else can He withhold.</p>
<p>Beyond thy utmost wants<br>
His love and pow&#8217;r can bless;<br>
To praying souls He always grants,<br>
More than they can express.</p>
<p>Since &#8217;tis the Lord&#8217;s command,<br>
My mouth I open wide;<br>
Lord open Thou Thy bounteous hand,<br>
That I may be supplied.</p>
<p>Thine image, Lord, bestow,<br>
Thy presence and Thy love;<br>
I ask to serve Thee here below,<br>
And reign with Thee above.</p>
<p>Teach me to live by faith,<br>
Conform my will to Thine;<br>
Let me victorious be in death,<br>
And then in glory shine.</p>
<p>If Thou these blessings give,<br>
And wilt my portion be;<br>
Cheerful the world&#8217;s poor toys I leave,<br>
To them who know not Thee.</p>
