thou hast made me whole.

lavished all on me!

know what wealth of grace is thine,
know thy certainty of promise
and have made it mine. [Refrain]

thine is love indeed. [Refrain]

fill me with thy grace. [Refrain] Topics: Jesus Christ His Love and Grace; Adoration Scripture: Hebrews 12:2 Languages: English Tune Title: TRANQUILITY
