Saved By Grace Alone

Author: Lizzie DeArmond Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: No tears can wash my sins away Lyrics: 1 No tears can wash my sins away, I’m saved by grace alone; No deeds of love my debt can pay, I’m saved by grace alone. Out from the depths of sin I cried Unto the Lord once crucified, He gently drew me to his side, I’m saved by grace alone. 2 I looked to him in sorrow’s night, I’m saved by grace alone; He led me to the perfect light, I’m saved by grace alone. O long from him my footsteps strayed, His holy will I disobeyed, But now on him my guilt I’ve laid, I’m saved by grace alone. 3 When life is o’er I’ll joyful sing, I’m saved by grace alone; While songs of rapture round me ring, I’m saved by grace alone. Enthroned in glory I shall see The blessed Lord who died for me, And know thro’ all eternity, I’m saved by grace alone. Scripture: Ephesians 2:8 Used With Tune: [No tears can wash my sins away]
