<div class="lyrics">
<p>By grace I&#8217;m saved, grace free and boundless;<br>
My soul, believe and doubt it not;<br>
Why stagger at this word of promise?<br>
Hath Scripture ever falsehood taught?<br>
Nay; then this word must true remain:<br>
By grace thou, too, shalt heav&#8217;n obtain.</p>
<p>By grace! None dare lay claim to merit;<br>
Our works and conduct have no worth,<br>
God in His love sent our Redeemer,<br>
Christ Jesus, to this sinful earth;<br>
His death did for our sins atone,<br>
And we are saved by grace alone.</p>
<p>By grace! O, mark this word of promise<br>
When thou art by thy sins oppressed,<br>
When Satan plagues thy troubled conscience,<br>
And when thy heart is seeking rest.<br>
What reason cannot comprehend<br>
God by His grace to thee doth send.</p>
<p>By grace! This ground of faith is certain;<br>
So long as God is true, it stands.<br>
What saints have penned by inspiration,<br>
What in His Word our God commands,<br>
What our whole faith must rest upon,<br>
Is grace alone, grace in His Son.</p>
