SINCE GRACE IS FREE THERE'S HOPE FOR ME!
Don Fortner
(Tune:
Jesus, and Shall It Ever Be #400 LM)
Since
grace is free there's hope for me!
It's
unconditional, I see;
That means that I can come to God
Upon
the grounds of Jesus' blood!
Though
I cannot God's mercy win,
He will
forgive me of my sin;
Confessing
all my guilt to Him,
Through
Christ God now declares me clean!
Though
I was dead, the Spirit came,
Gave
life and faith in Christ, the Lamb,
His
sin-atoning blood applied,
And
said, "By grace you're justified!"
Tempted
and tried, I'm weak and frail,
Yet, by
God's grace I shall prevail;
Yes, to
the end I shall endure,
Since
God's free grace keeps me secure!
Praise
God for grace, free, sov'reign grace,
Grace
that chose me from Adam's race,
Grace
that gave Christ to take my place!
Grace saved me, and grace gives me peace!
