HYMN OF GRACE

WE HAVE NOT COME TO SINAI'S BROW
(Tune: Majestic Sweetness #52 CM)

Don Fortner


We have not come to Sinai's brow,
Where God with thunder spoke
The dreadful curses of the law,
Midst tempest, fire, and smoke.

To Zion's fairer hill we've come,
The City of our God.
Though sinners, here we are welcome
Through Jesus' precious blood.

With chosen angels, clothed in light,
And spirits of the just,
We're gathered here to worship Christ,
The mighty God we trust.

Constrained, compelled by God's free grace,
Effectually we're taught,
Living by grace, to live for Christ,
For by His blood we're bought!

Yet, painfully, we must confess –
"Our noblest deeds are sin!"
Still, Sinai's law cannot molest,
For Jesus' blood says, "Clean!"

In Zion's hill the guilty rest
And endless sabbath keep.
Leaning upon our Savior's breast,
As safely folded sheep.


Don Fortner, Pastor
