10 And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran. 11 And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep. 12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it. 13 And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed; 14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed. 15 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.
16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not.(KJV)
Hymn: WS 778:
Grace Has a Thrilling Sound
—
To each believer’s ear;
That peace with God through Christ is found
Is news I gladly hear.
Grace first devised the way
To save our fallen race;
The Father sent His only Son
Who came to take our place.
2. Grace first inscribed my name
In God’s eternal book,
And grace has brought me to the Lamb,
Who all my sorrows took.
Grace led my wand’ring feet
To tread the heav’nly road,
And grace supplies each hour I meet
While pressing on to God.
3. Grace taught my soul to pray
And made my eyes o’erflow;
His grace has kept me to this day
And will not let me go. Grace
all our Work shall crown
Through everlasting days;
The heav’nly home God gives His own
Shall echo with our praise.

1. Grace! ‘Tis a charming sound,
Harmonious to the ear;
Heaven with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear.
2. Grace first contrived the way
To save rebellious man,
And all the steps that grace display
Which drew the wondrous plan.
3. Grace first inscribed my name
In God’s eternal book;
‘Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb,
Who all my sorrows took.
4. Grace led my wandering feet
To tread the heavenly road;
And new supplies each hour I meet
While pressing on to God.
5. Grace taught my soul to pray
And made mine eyes o’erflow;
‘Twas grace that kept me to this day
And will not let me go.
6. Grace all the work shall crown
Through everlasting days;
It lays in heaven the topmost stone
And well deserves the praise.
