Not What My Hands Have Done Can Save My Guilty Soul;
Not What My Toiling Flesh Has Borne Can Make My Spirit Whole.
Not What I Feel Or Do Can Give Me Peace With God;
Not All My Prayers And Sighs And Tears Can Bear My Awful Load.
Your Voice Alone, O Lord, Can Speak To Me Of Grace;
Your Power Alone, O Son Of God, Can All My Sin Erase.
No Other Work But Yours, No Other Blood Will Do;
No Strength But That Which Is Divine Can Bear Me Safely Through.
Thy Work Alone, O Christ, Can Ease This Weight Of Sin;
Thy Blood Alone, O Lamb Of God, Can Give Me Peace Within.
Thy Love To Me, O God, Not Mine, O Lord, To Thee,
Can Rid Me Of This Dark Unrest, And Set My Spirit Free.
I Bless The Christ Of God; I Rest On Love Divine;
And With Unfaltering Lip And Heart I Call This Savior Mine.
His Cross Dispels Each Doubt; I Bury In His Tomb
Each Thought Of Unbelief And Fear, Each Lingering Shade Of Gloom.
I Praise The God Of Grace; I Trust His Truth And Might;
He Calls Me His, I Call Him Mine, My God, My Joy And Light.
‘Tis He Who Saveth Me, And Freely Pardon Gives;
I Love Because He Loveth Me, I Live Because He Lives.
