Depraved in heart, in thought, in deed,
I could not cease from sin:
A fallen wretch of Adam's seed,
My will was bound by sin.
Not by my works, nor by my will,
But by grace alone,
God has saved me, I will praise Him,
Praise my God alone!
My God, in love, eternal love,
Elected me to live
And I to God, for His free grace,
Will all the glory give.
Not by my works, nor by my will,
But by grace alone,
God has saved me, I will praise Him,
Praise my God alone!
In die due time, God sent His Son
To die for His elect:
Christ's blood has full atonement made–
He fully paid my debt!
Not by my works, nor by my will,
But by grace alone,
God has saved me, I will praise Him,
Praise my God alone!
In time the Holy Spirit came
And called me by the Word;
By grace that I could not resist,
He drew me to my Lord.
Not by my works, nor by my will,
But by grace alone,
God has saved me, I will praise Him,
Praise my God alone!
Now I'm secure in Christ's own hands,
I'm kept by sov'reign grace:
Believing Him, I'll persevere,
And ever give Him praise.
Not by my works, nor by my will,
But by grace alone,
God has saved me, I will praise Him,
Praise my God alone!
