Saved by Grace: The Hymn of Crosby and Moody

This episode tells the true story behind Fanny Crosby’s hymn "Saved by Grace" — how a blind hymn writer, encouraged by Moody and others, found a once private, encouraging poem became a beloved hymn after being shared at a conference and set to music. Now the profound truth of that timeless hymn has wafted across continents, reminding us that we are saved only by His grace.  HYMN LYRICS: Saved By Grace 1. Some day the silver cord will break, And I no more as now shall sing; But oh, the joy when I shall wake Within the palace of the King! (Refrain) And I shall see Him face to face, And tell the story—-Saved by grace; And I shall see Him face to face, And tell the story—-Saved by grace. 2. Some day my earthly house will fall, I cannot tell how soon ’twill be; But this I know-—my All in All Has now a place in heav’n for me. (Refrain) 3. Some day, when fades the golden sun Beneath the rosy-tinted west, My blessed Lord will say, “Well done!” And I shall enter into rest. (Refrain) 4. Some day: till then I’ll watch and wait, My lamp all trimmed and burning bright, That when my Saviour opes the gate, My soul to Him may take its flight. (Refrain)
