O praise His name, He’s a great Savior—His love proclaim! Bearing my burden, He took my place! I’m a saved sinner! O wondrous grace! 2 I’m a saved sinner!

From my King’s orders no more to swerve. Oh, to be loyal to Him I love! Oh, to bring others to shine above! [Refrain] 4 I’m a saved sinner! Yes, saved by grace! Saved to help others to run the race. Trusting His keeping while here below, Saved for His glory, His pow’r to show. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [I’m a saved sinner! I know it well]
