*Pastor’s Note: A.B. Simpson was a very well respected Canadian preacher, theologian and author who lived from December 15, 1843 to October 29, 1919. My prayer is that you will be blessed and inspired by his poetry as much as I am.


A SINNER SAVED BY GRACE

When I shall reach my home in glory,
And see my Saviour face to face,
This shall be all my song and story,—
A sinner saved by grace.

I’ll tell how by His blood He bought me
With all our lost and ransomed race,
And how so tenderly He sought me
And saved me by His grace.

I’ll tell them how His Spirit sealed me
And cleansed me from each sinful trace,
And how when sick and worn He healed me
And saved me by His grace.

I’ll sing how lovingly He led me
At last to yonder heavenly place,
And how He shepherded and fed me
And kept me by His grace.

Yes, when I reach my home in glory
And see my Saviour face to face,
This shall be all my song and story,—
A sinner saved by grace.

About Roland Ledoux

Ordained minister (thus a servant). Called to encourage and inspire one another by teaching His Word, and through intercessory prayer for others, praying for those in need as well as the lost. I and my wife of 50+ years live in Delta, Colorado where the Lord has chosen to plant us in a beautiful church home.
