Freedom of Access to a Throne of Grace. Heb. 4. 16
1
Come boldly to a throne of grace,
 
Ye wretched sinners, come;
 
And lay your load at Jesus’ feet,
 
And plead what he has done.
2
“How can I come?” some soul may say,
 
“I’m lame, and cannot walk;
 
My guilt and sin have stopped my mouth;
 
I sigh, but dare not talk.”
3
Come boldly to the throne of grace,
 
Though lost, and blind, and lame;
 
Jehovah is the sinner’s Friend,
 
And ever was the same.
4
He makes the dead to hear his voice;
 
He makes the blind to see;
 
The sinner lost he came to save,
 
And set the prisoner free.
5
Come boldly to the throne of grace,
 
For Jesus fills the throne;
 
And those he kills he makes alive;
 
He hears the sigh or groan.
6
Poor bankrupt souls, who feel and know
 
The hell of sin within,
 
Come boldly to the throne of grace;
 
The Lord will take you in.
