Come Boldly to the Throne of Grace

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, ca. 1899
Composer: John Sweney

Come

ye who from your hearts be­lieve

That Je­sus an­swers pray­er

Come bold­ly to a throne of grace

And claim His pro­mise there

That

if His love in us ab­ide

And we in Him are one

Whatever in His name we ask

It sure­ly will be done.

Come lov­ing­ly and trust­ing­ly

Take Je­sus at His word

For He has said

the pray­er of faith

Was nev­er yet un­heard.

If in the fount­ain filled with blood

Our sins are washed away

Come bold­ly to a throne of grace

Rejoicing that we may

Come bold­ly to a throne of grace

And bless the Lord our king—

Who fills our grate­ful hearts with praise

And tunes our tongues to sing.

From ev­ery pre­cious

gold­en hour

We spend in fer­vent pray­er

We ga­ther strength from day to day

For each re­turn­ing care;

And

while with true

be­liev­ing hearts

We bow be­fore His throne

There’s not a pro­mise He has made

But we may call our own.
