"The tune is derived from instrumental music of a previous time and place, probably Ireland (Jackson 1952, No. 166). This tune was arranged by Parting Hand (William Walker) in ''Southern Harmony'', 1835, as ''Parting Hand'', thence to ''The Sacred Harp (1844)'', p. 62, from 1844 to the present. Words by Susanna Harrison, 1780, ''Songs In The Night'' No. 80, with ten stanzas. Ingalls used two of Harrison's stanzas in each line of his composition."

¶Lyrics / Text

1. Away, my doubts, be gone, my fear, The wonders of the Lord appear, The wonders that my Savior wrought; O how delightful is the thought! 2. The wonders of redeeming love, When first my heart was drawn above; When first I saw my Savior's face, And triumphed in His pardoning grace. 3. Pursue, my thoughts, this pleasing theme, 'Twas not a fancy nor a dream; 'Twas grace descending from the skies, And shall be marvelous in my eyes.
