By Grace I’m Saved

By grace I’m saved

grace free and bound­less;

My soul

be­lieve and doubt it not;

Why stag­ger at this word of pro­mise?

Hath Scrip­ture ev­er false­hood taught?

Nay; then this word must true re­main:

By grace thou

too

shalt Heav’n ob­tain.

By grace! None dare lay claim to mer­it;

Our works and con­duct have no worth

God in His love sent our Re­deem­er

Christ Je­sus

to this sin­ful earth;

His death did for our sins atone

And we are saved by grace alone.

By grace! O

mark this word of pro­mise

When thou art by thy sins op­pressed

When Sa­tan plagues thy trou­bled con­sci­ence

And when thy heart is seek­ing rest.

What rea­son can­not com­pre­hend

God by His grace to thee doth send.

By grace! This ground of faith is cer­tain;

So long as God is true

it stands.

What saints have penned by in­spir­ation

What in His Word our God com­mands

What our whole faith must rest up­on

Is grace alone

grace in His Son.
