All of Grace
by Don Fortner
The glory, bliss, and perfection of heaven, whatever
it is and all that it includes, is but the consummation
of salvation; and it is, in its totality, the gift and work
of God’s free and sovereign grace in Christ.
In heaven’s glory we shall forever adore and praise
our great God for the wondrous mystery of his grace,
by which we are saved.
Everything in the great work of salvation sets forth
the splendour of the grace of the Most High God.
What do we see in election, predestination, redemption,
regeneration, and preservation, but his grace?
The whole work of salvation displays God’s rich, free,
almighty, irresistible, sovereign, saving grace in Christ!
In, salvation as well as in creation, all things are of
God, all things are by God, and all things are for God.
Unto him alone all praise must be forever!
