Grace Alone (Sola Gratia)

By: Every Nation Music

hilst hearts were far and hard as stone

To sin and violence predisposed

The kindness of the one offended

With nail pierced hands the chasm mended

’Twas God who reached to draw us close

’Twas he alone that none may boast

Salvation’s work we cannot own

His grace alone that none may boast

His grace alone that none may boast

Whilst feet were prone to wandering

In fields forbidden lingering

With gentleness his rod and staff

Corrected and made straight our path

heaven’s shepherd lead us home

’Twas he alone that none may boast

Salvation work we cannot own

’Twas grace alone that none may boast

His grace alone that none may boast

Whilst hands were set to aimless task

On building what would never last

Jesus Christ the stone rejected

Turned our works to praise accepted

His burden light, easy his yoke

’Twas he alone that none may boast

Salvation’s work we cannot own

’Twas grace alone that none may boast

’Twas grace alone that none may boast

Whilst lips have words to sing and speak

Our songs of praise will never cease

A once rebellious fallen race

Has come to know amazing grace

Now we stand as his betrothed

Firmly in our saviors‘ hold

Salvations work is not our own

God made it so, let it me known

In Christ alone we make our boast

’Twas grace alone that none may boast

Sweet grace alone that none may boast
