Don Francisco - Grace on Grace

When God came and lived among us,
We could see His glory shine,
A glory like no one before Him,
Nor will be through endless time.
Far beyond the power of angels,
Wholy God and wholy man,
So full of grace and truth and mercy,
With a shepherd's gentle hand.

Moses gave the law to bind us,
The prophets spoke just as they had heard,
But Jesus came and lived among us,
And we touched the living Word.
Seeing Jesus, we saw the Father,
The Great Physician, the sinner's Friend,
Loving all who would receive Him,
And He loved us to the end.

Virgin-born the Son of David,
By jealous hatred was crucified,
Oh but the grave just could not hold Him,
And He arose, no more to die.
Rising Son of life unbounded,
The light of all who ever see,
And from His overflowing bounty,
Grace on grace He gave, for you and me.

When Jesus came and lived among us,
We could see His glory shine,
When He ascended to the Father,
He made that glory yours and mine,
The promised power, His Holy Spirit,
Has come to make our hearts His home,
To shine the righteous light of Jesus,
Until He comes back, to claim His own,
Until He comes back, to claim His own.
