Just a Sinner Saved by Grace

Original Tune: Just a closer walk with Thee; Anonymous


Thy law chased and found me in
Guilt and shame, all did offend
Adding sin upon my sin
No one good, O Lord, none but thee.

Chorus:
Just a sinner saved by grace
Jesus, Lord who took my place
He, who died for righteous sake,
Gives new life, my sin I now forsake.

Thy grace came and found me so
Lost in unbelief’s control
Hated love I did not know
Yet you save, you saved a wretched foe

Chorus:

When I’m weary from the fight
Jesus leads, thy Spirit’s might
Joy in suffering through this night,
Strength to walk by faith, not by sight.

Chorus:

When this race is finally won
Death will hold not a one
All sheep given to the Son
Hear the voice of Father say, “well done.”
