The gospel comes with welcome news
Of pardon full and free;
Their various schemes while others choose,
Saviour, we come to thee.
Of merit never can we speak,
For merit we have none,
But justified for Jesus’ sake,
We’re saved by grace alone.
‘Twas grace our wayward hearts first won,
‘Tis grace that holds us fast;
Grace will complete the work begun,
And save us at the last.
Then shall our souls, with rapture, trace
The love that sets us free;
And celebrate redeeming grace
Thoughout eternity.
