Grace Alone

I was an orphan, lost at the fall

Running away when I'd hear you 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 up so high 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

But nothin' 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

And I swore I knew the way on my own

A head full of rocks, a heart made of stone

But Spirit, you made moved me

And 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
