Representative Text

1 As I walk at the side of my Savior divine,
In the marvelous light of His glorified face,
Sweet indeed the assurance which always is mine;
I am saved by His wonderful grace.

Refrain:
Saved by His wonderful grace,
I’m saved by His wonderful grace;
Sin condemned me to die, but forgiven am I;
I am saved by His wonderful grace.

2 Mighty storms may betide and the tempter assail,
I shall still press along tow’rd the heavenly place;
If I’m true to my Savior I never shall fail;
I am saved by His wonderful grace. [Refrain]

3 By and by, in the city of glory above,
With a glorified throng, I shall look on His face;
There forever my soul will rejoice in His love;
I am saved by His wonderful grace. [Refrain]
