Grace can well be called “God’s Riches at Christ’s Expense.” After we Christians have been in Heaven for ten billion years, we will have “no less days to sing God’s praise than when we first begun.” We will sing God’s praises because of what the Lord Jesus Christ did for us on the cross of Calvary, making possible the transformation of our hearts.

Amazing Grace! how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believed!
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believed!
