The Hope Set Before You

Lay hold on the hope set before you,
And let not a moment be lost,
The Savior has purchased your ransom,
But think what a price it hath cost!

Refrain

Lay hold on eternal salvation,
Lay hold on the gift of God�s only Son;
Lay hold on His infinite mercy,
Lay hold on the Mighty One!

Lay hold on the hope set before you,
Of life that you now may receive,
If, gladly His mercy accepting,
You truly repent and believe.

Refrain

Lay hold on the hope set before you,
Of joy that no mortal can speak;
It telleth of rest for the weary,
Through Jesus, the lowly and meek.

Refrain

Lay hold on the hope set before you,
A hope that is steadfast and sure;
O haste to the bless�d Redeemer,
The loving, the perfect and pure.
