Shines within this jar of clay

O praise the God of every grace

Through the watches of the night

At the cross took up our pain
And You lead us on to glory
As we trust You the God of grace

O praise the God of every grace

As I wait upon Your mercy
Which will swallow every ache

Cries of joy and songs of victory
When we enter heaven's gates
All Your children home together
All with You the God of grace

O praise the God of every grace
