Salvation by Grace

Lord, we confess our numerous Faults, How great our Guilt has been! Foolish and vain were all our Thoughts, And all our Lives were Sin.

But, O my Soul, for ever praise For ever love his Name, Who turns thy Feet from dangerous Ways Of Folly, Sin and Shame.

'Tis not by Works of Righteousness, Which our own Hands have done; But we are saved by sovereign Grace Abounding thro' thy Son.

'Tis from the Mercy of our God That all our Hopes begin; 'Tis by the Water and the Blood Our Souls are wash'd from Sin:

'Tis thro' the Purchase of his Death Who hung upon the Tree Thy Spirit is sent down to breath On such dry Bones as we.

Rais'd from the Dead we live anew And justified by Grace, We shall appear in Glory too And see our Father's Face.
