|
I was an orphan lost at the fall |
|
Running away when I'd hear your call |
|
But Father, you worked your will |
|
I had no righteousness of my own |
|
I had no right to draw near your throne |
|
But Father, you loved me still |
|
And in love before you laid the world's foundation |
|
You predestined to adopt me as your own |
|
You have raised me so high u above my station |
|
I'm a child of God by grace and grace alone |
|
You left your home to seek out the lost |
|
You knew the great and terrible cost |
|
But Jesus, your face was set |
|
I worked my fingers down to the bone |
|
Nothing I did could ever atone |
|
But Jesus, you paid my debt |
|
By your blood I have redemption and salvation |
|
Lord, you died that I might reap what you have sown |
|
And you rose that I might be a new creation |
|
I am born again by grace and grace alone |
|
I was in darkness all of my life |
|
I never knew the day from the night |
|
But Spirit, you made me see |
|
I swore I knew the way on my own |
|
Head full of rocks, a heart made of stone |
|
But Spirit, you moved in me |
|
At your touch my sleeping spirit was awakened |
|
On my darkened heart the light of Christ has shone |
|
Called into a kingdom that cannot be shaken |
|
Heaven's citizen by grace and grace alone |
|
So I'll stand in faith by grace and grace alone |
|
I will run the race by grace and grace alone |
|
I will slay my sin by grace and grace alone |
|
I will reach the end by grace and grace alone |
