He shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shouting, crying, Grace, grace unto it. Now, therefore, unto Him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever.
